A technique for creating new words.

Take the words:

drop, puddle, pond, lake, river, sea, ocean.

These objects are all water and only differ in quantity not in quality. Then why to remember so many words ? These seven words can be replaced a new words with a common root word ( such as 'wassa' taken from german) and adding an indicator of quantity.

To indicate gradient of quantity/scale, vowel suffices can be used.

Lowest to highest gradient : a, e, i, o, u, ou, etc... or simply digits can be used. 1, 2, 3 ,4 etc.

They become

drop = wassa;

puddle = wasse;

pond = wassi;

lake = wasso;

river = wassu;

Now it is lot easier to remember.

Or we could make it Wassa1, wassa2, wassa3 ..etc. But I prefer earlier one.

Another example of words would be :

crawl, walk, run etc.

or

infant, baby, teenager, man/woman, elder etc.

In a nutshell, when forming a new language, rather than inhereting words from other language as they are, artificially create words that are easier to pronounce, and easy to remember.

Compare remembering drop, puddle, pond, lake, river, sea, ocean against remembering wassa, wasse, wassi, wasso, wassu! .. It is extremly easy.

Similary rain, bristle, steam, flood, are related to water. They also can be dervied from root word "wassa", not by using same quantity gradient but along some other dimention such as density gradient/dimention.

Thus ice, snow, steam, rain, bristle may be formed along density dimention of root word "wassa".

I think Espranto critically lacks this feature.

With this technique we can create vocabulary of common words that can be memorized within 1 hour. Very useful for true globalization!
