I am just posting these as a precursor of things to come. I was going to do some usage, but as I was going through typing things out I realized I haven’t explained on here at all anything that would help to make sense. I am going to do a bit more grammar before posting verb usage and conjugation. Just look at this as a post to get an idea of what some of the words are.
