Re: Who runs faster than me?
I am especially interested in those two. How do you handle non-referential quantifiers, like "nobody" and "somebody"? Can they occur as regular arguments of a verb? Or do the show some special syntactic behaviour? Perhaps there are no equivalents to "nobody", "somebody" and other non-referential expressions in your conlangs?Xing wrote:

Heck, I did it in my Rozwi renditions above.
i.e.
šeltēk šletuge '(s)he runs faster'
both have root Š-L-T ( ؟ Wut‽ A triconsonantal root? It this a trace of my attempts at a semitic ...... )
but Cf. also
šeltēk šilitō '(s)he runs very fast'
šeltēk šeleit '(s)he runs fast'
BTW also has Cognate Datives, which would quack and waddle more like my ADV examples, in that has Dative of Instrument.
Plus, it was an alliterative effect not unlike the Old alliterative verse of Beowulf.
