One of things I most appreciate in a grammar is good formatting.

My Midhera grammar is ten thousand pages!

Well, after uploading the newest update of my Kankonian page (with the information on the words for "each" and "not as . . . as" constructions added), I copied-and-pasted the text to my webpage into Corel WordPerfect.
In WordPerfect pages, my Kankonian grammar is now up to 75 pages. So I've hit a new milestone.
I shall celebrate by eating some lumpia for lunch tomorrow.
