Museum hours

[Dormouse559]

Adapted liberally from this sign. How does your 'lang communicate closing for the night versus closing permanently?


Silvish

The museum opens when I wake up and closes when I must go to sleep. When I have had enough, it will close for good.

Instead of using the adverbial phrase na neyevalta "until forever", you could also use the terminative prefix fad-. Together with the verb acla "to close" it would then mean "to finish up closing".

Nat cesinasbai, rofadaclut.

The museum I open when I wake up, and I close it when I must go to sleep. When I come from the completion, I will terminate the museum.

For many English verbs, there is no direct translation to Caelian. Many times, there is a set phrase consisting of a noun in a specific case and a form of the copula verb byanglis.

So: "The museum closes" is translated literally as "I close the museum"
"I have enough" is always byanglis + a noun in the ablative case, "I come from there". In this sentence, I understood "I have had enough" as in "I will retire", and therefore I translated it as "I come from the completion", in a positive sense.
"It closes for good/forever" is the noun in the terminative case + byanglis.

U museus se yepre quand ke jo me lève, es é se ferme quand ke jo daige me koukier. Quand ke jo en age desvenut satou, é se fermara por de bon.

"Have enough of", "be sick of" is expressed with desvenir satou de "become drunk on"; satou is cognate with French saoul, Italian satollo. In this case the compound perfect (u passat komposat) is used to emphasis the completion of the action.

[Arayaz]

Might be cool to have a permanency derivational affix. So you could have cháve "close for the night" > cháveni "close permanently." Or zukkóv "sleep" > zukkóvni "die."
