See ray for indirect causation. Also note that di is not used as 'make' for non-substantial entities like 'plan' (where it might be confused with 'do'); for such words, use a verb like 'invent' or 'think of'.

'affect' is translated as 'di e'."

ar,preposition,specifies destination,"to, at, until","Used to specify an additional parameter for a verb that is in some way being moved *toward*, like destination, target, or recipient. Some verbs that use this slot are give, send (recipient), put, move (destination), throw (target), and encourage (to do what). Can also be used as 'until' (time)."
ra,preposition,specifies source,"from, for, to, since","Used to specify an additional parameter for a verb that is in some way being moved *away from*, like source, origin, or precedent.

zolco,verb,convince,"convince, persuade",
vo,verb,try,"try, so, so that","This word itself means 'try'. For info on 'so that', see the concept article on multiple predicates.

vo is stricter than ri. While ri can describe any expected consequence of an action, vo describes only *wanted* consequences. Precisely, it means that the outcome is either a terminal value (something the agent wants for its own sake) or a means to one, not an unwanted side effect."
vi,"verb, adverb",believe that ... would make one happy,"want","Can apply to wanting something either for its own sake or as a means. 'ar' specifies what end the subject wants it for.

As is typical of Spem verbs like this, when vi requires a subordinate clause, it uses ke, rather than the convoluted English syntax of ""I want you to do X"" when you mean ""I want that you do X"". If ""you"" is the subject of the subordinate clause, it shouldn't be phrased as an object. However, when the wanter is also the subject of the subordinate clause, the shorthand of "I want do X" is allowed, which is why this is tagged as an adverb."
vu,verb,believe that ... would make one unhappy,"fear, hate","See notes on vi. ar also specifies what end the subject fears it for."
iv,verb,... is in one's interests,"need","This is used with the same syntax as vi, but means that the thing is actually in the subject's interests, regardless of whether they think so."
uv,verb,... is against one's interests,,"This is used with the same syntax as vu, but means that the thing is actually against the subject's interests, regardless of whether they think so."
ri,verb,choose,"choose","Often combined with ke to mean ""choose for something to happen"". For example: ""ri ke Bob neku"" = ""choose for Bob to die"", to allow it intentionally if not to cause it. ri does not mean the agent *desired* the outcome, only that they expected it. Also, ri does not strictly mean the outcome *happened*; only that the agent took an action they expected to cause it.

To say 'choose from' or 'choose between', say 'ri ra'."

ze,verb,use,"use, by, with, through, via","See the concept article on multiple predicates."
ji,modifier,maybe,"maybe","Should go before the verb in general, because otherwise it can be mistaken for modifying the subject (which it can also do - ""ji ? ki lo"" = ""possibly-true statement""). ""Probably"" = ""da ji"". Optionally the subject of the probability can be before ji: ""Bob ji ..."" = ""From Bob's perspective / with his information, it's possible that ..."""

er,pronoun,me,"I, me, myself","When used as the subject of `a`, er does not generally need `a` to be said. It's fine to leave it out: ""er yaku"" = ""I'm outside"" (literally ""I outside""). For most words this doesn't work because it loses a distinction. For example, with ""the big one is green"" versus ""the big green one"", the latter implies there's an entity that we all already know is both big and green, while the former identifies an entity only distinguished by bigness and informs the listener of an additional quality it has. But with er, this isn't an issue since there's only one entity er can refer to."
or,pronoun,you,"you, yourself, yourselves","Thoya has no plural, so or can refer to an audience of multiple people, but can't refer to a group including people who are not present."

'Samurai nogu ne': Samurai are killing themselves/each other. No indiciation of which.
'Samurai nogu en': Samurai are killing each other.
'ɪna Samurai nogu ne': Samurai are killing themselves."
nu,modifier,not,"not, no","When used as 'not', it behaves like Spanish 'no': it always goes directly before the thing it negates. It can also be used to answer a question or to contradict someone with a single syllable. Like yi, it can also be used to negate a predicate inferrable from context. For example:
""I can't believe you all just let this happen!""
""I didn't (er nu)! I just couldn't stop it without everyone else's help."""
yi,special,yes,"yes","This can be used either in answer to a question or to agree with a statement. It can also be used to replace a predicate that's inferrable from context. For example:
""Did you do this?""
""No, Charlie did!"" --> ""nu, Charlie yi!""

""Writing a book isn't hard. Writing a good one is."" (is = yi)"

tu,"preposition, degree modifier",to the following extent,"by, so, so much, too, too much, enough","This is the 'by' in ""taller by 3 meters"". It's also the way to use units, even outside of comparison: ""3 meters tall"" => ""tall by 3 meters"".

It also means ""to such an extent that"": ""bije tu ke ..."" = ""so hot that...""

The meanings 'too' and 'enough' are corollaries of this. A statement of the form 'too X' or 'X enough' can be expanded to 'X to such an extent that (something bad/good)', but with an inferred result. So, they can be translated into Thoya as 'X tu' with nothing after it, or with something vague like 'X tu feru'."

ce,special,early evaluator,,"ce solves certain ambiguities by 'pulling aside' another word to evaluate it outside of its containing clause. For example: 'I think that all of my beliefs are true.' When I say it in English, many people tell me this statement is stupid because they wrongly parse it as 'I think the following: all of my beliefs are true', when the correct parse is 'for each of my beliefs, denoted B, I think the following: B is true'.  Interpreted correctly, the statement is a truism.

ce works like this: 'ce ɪna tin ko er ci nay, ci ke nay a yec.' = 'for each of my beliefs, denoted ce, I think that ce is true.'"

'yur ke (guests) us peŋi (shoes) kyɪs qi' = 'guests must remove shoes when entering'.
'yur ke ŋi qu kemi ŋe er' = 'leave my house'. as this example shows, you can think of 'yur ke' as being a command prefix, but don't take that too far because English commands have many other meanings, for example advice commands or requests that are not meant to generate conditions on the use of one's property (for example 'come here')."
