NOTES: There are no pronouns in Hatemil; instead, a vowel suffix is tacked on to the end of a word to determine its conjugation. This applies to all verbs and some adjectives. People's names and nouns referring to people have an i or a suffix (except for "foreign" names). Aside from these suffixes, no words end in vowel sounds. (In the word list below, words that may have vowel suffixes are marked with an asterisk.)
The suffix 'r may be added onto a verb to mean "one who." For example, the word mek, meaning "to speak," would become mek'r, "one who speaks." However, in some circumstances, the 'r suffix may be added onto a noun, to mean "one who uses" or "one who is skilled with." This doesn't always lend itself to a literal translation into English.
