I wish you would do word-for-word translations of *everything* you
write. I don't have a cmavo list online, so when I see a a message
saying:
Also {ra'i}, {fi'e}, {teka'a}, {vebe'i}...
I fail to understand you because I don't know what the words mean and
I don't have time to locate and look up the paper-based list of cmavo.
Thanks
