Creation and Usage Notes

Ordinarily I'd invest a bit more thought in a word for "time", but given the status of this language as a mother language, and the conculture, I figured it'd be best to do a simple, basic word for "time" (think 𓂓 from Egyptian). -David J. Peterson 16:46, 31 December 2019 (PST)
