Re: Conlang Conversation Thread

I have " βηγήντε " [βi.'jin.te], because the hiatus is pre-tonic [the hiatus what would arise if I dropped the glide; viïnte ], and that is a no-go. But simplified βήντε ['βin.te] is not unheard-of in more colloquial registers. Των σκοίλε αλκός άλτο. Ton scyle alkós alto. So you pick somet...

Re: Working like a slave

In Spanish, the idiom for working hard is "trabajar como un chino", lit. working like a Chinese person.
The opposite could be expressed by "no dar palo al agua", lit. not throwing any stick into the water.
