I look up all the words. I may not understand the words but I can at
least figure out the word type. "preblgaria" stops me cold. Vowel
ending, consonant cluster, must be brivla. I look up "pre" giving
prenu. "ria" is not a rafsi. Wait. This must be bulgarian person.
A le'avla.
This is all just wild guessing. I did not use the morphology
rules which I do not understand in any case. Does anyone understand
the rules well enough to actually use them?
