NOTES__________________

Introducing the conlanguage "Kyroi", named after the first word to be invented upon its conception, which means "to go" in the present tense. It was conceived while on a dark road along the mountains of Utah, in the back of a similarly darkly lit van thinking and pondering to myself. In my mind an image of someone shouting in this language came, commanding and saying various things whose English analogy I understood, and by necessity took these words and their meanings down in typing. This passed either at the very beginning of the year 2012 AD or near the very end of the preceding year of 2011. I have since kept the lexicon a secret in my hard-drive, which I will share for the first time here.

I will give the linguistic grammar and a list of various phrases not mentioned in this index, yet which are essential among which are words equating to "would" and "if".
