[quote Rhetorica, Illúbequía: Dis, Major Belt 1][h2]Qualitative partitives[/h2]
These never changed from the archaic pattern of using word order:

[gb][g purple-having]zithuri[/g] [g 1.SG.GEN]si[/g] [g hair-F.SG.Ø]khríméa[/g][/gb]
My purple hair.[/quote]

So this does this mean "the part of my hair that is purple"?

[quote dhok, Deacon, Norman, United States]
[i]Me [26 M] caught my girlfriend [21 F] of 3 months with another guy a couple weeks ago.[/i]

[i]Me [19 M] just ended a friendship [18 F] due to feelings of affection.[/i][/quote]

These read more like "Me: 26 M, caught my girl..." to me, not as actual sentences, especially as they are post titles.

Definitely an interesting idea... but this would become a second set of inflections, ideally, although it *could* be interpreted as a different degree of definiteness, and hmm.

This started out as a yes-I-must-talk-about-this-now thread, but it occurs to me I have no idea what I'm doing, so instead of just soliciting feedback I'd like to invite others to share their partitive systems also.

[h1]Partitives in Lilitika[/h1]
There are three categories of partitives in Lilitika:

(a) constructions where a set, general term exists; these are usually vague cases such as "some of the people" or "half of the night"

Interesting features thread (2014-11-25 14:38:39) :
The default meaning of using a dimension word (e.g. width, height, size, weight) as an adjective in Lilitika results in a minimal form, e.g. [i]evegzí[/i] (small) from [i]evegze[/i] (size). To create a "large" word, the generic prefix [b]kel-[/b] ("great") must be added on (i.e. [i]kelevegzí[/i]), and for "medium," a negation is performed with [b]al[/b]([b]e[/b]|[b]é[/b]|[b]ez[/b])[b]-[/b], (i.e. [i]alvegzí[/i]). This originates in a cultural background that encouraged and normalized modesty....

Interesting features thread (2014-11-25 13:26:14) :
Modern Quazian has a ten-vowel system split into front (/i e æ y ø/) and back (/ɯ ɤ ɑ u o/) vowels. A single word can switch vowel classes as part of its inflectional routine, like so:

[b]ŋakka[/b] "word (nom.)"
[b]ŋäkkää[/b] "word (acc.)"

where Classical Quazian had [b]ŋak'a[/b] and [b]ŋak'a ja[/b]; later the accusative clitic [b]ja[/b] merged with the preceding word and the [i]-j-[/i] deleted, turning the preceding vowel into a front vowel. Since the penult was stressed, ...

Small reference frame? But yeah, I'll give a greater consideration to that. Although... I do kinda like the idea of having three ways to mark definiteness (the third is a sort-of-definiteness distinction on the verb in the third plural.)

I have had a chance to reflect further on the situation, and I've come to the conclusion that despite feeling otherwise most of the time, I may not currently be emotionally fit to cope with some of the realities of this game. I hope I can be forgiven for having signed up in the first place; it's not always obvious what one will and will not be able to deal with gracefully.

My apologies, and I wish Zayk well in his... interesting... new task.
