Welcome
Okay, let's have that brainstorming session on what we think technical words should be. For instance, what is the difference between "phonology" and "phonetics", "phones", "phonemes", and "allophones", and how do we show this in Anglish/pure English? BryanAJParry 20:13, 8 Jan 2006 (UTC)

Linguistics
How about the following? morpheme = WORDBIT, allomorph = ILKWORDBIT, linguistics = SPEECHLORE, morphology = WORDBITLORE, syntax = WORDORDERLORE, semantics = MEANINGLORE, pragmatics = DEEPMEANINGLORE, phonetics = SOUNDCRAFT, phonology = SOUNDLORE, phone = (REAL)SOUND, phoneme = MINDSOUND, allophone = ILKSOUND.

For anything that I think is unclear about my above suggestion, I now clearen: pragmatics is about the intended and implied meaning(s), whereas semantics is about basic linguist meaning; allo- basically refers to the the different variants of a single thing; mindsound because phonemes aren't the actual sounds, but our perception of them (e.g. we don't percieve, as English speakers, nasalised and non-nasalised vowels to be contrastively different; that is, they are both the same sound, but diff. versions of it); -craft I seem to be using often as an alternative to -lore when -lore is taken (-lore beign the default).
