Words are indexed here by their most usual LN forms; LF forms, where
they differ, are given in [square brackets]. Nouns are preceded by the
article to show their gender; note that the initial letters of
feminine nouns are therefore lenited.
Articles, numbers, names of months and days, and comparitive forms are
omitted.
Mutations are indicated by -h for lenition, -n for
eclipsis, and -* for non-mutation.
