Creation and Usage Notes

This is one of my oldest words for bunny (or the proto-form is). I think I first used it in Wivoys, a language I created before my sister was born that I thought we would use together (I abandoned that idea pretty quickly). I've used it a few times since. -David J. Peterson 14:36, 23 January 2020 (PST)
