How would you say 'almost' in Q or S?

Tamas Ferencz Mar 12, 2013 (12:59)

*araqua 'near-fully' maybe?

Lőrinczi Gábor Mar 12, 2013 (15:05)

Well, I would rather replace it. :) E.g. "I'm almost at the door" = Ú-chae o fennas im or just Anglennon na fennas.

Good point

I'd say amna, ambena would be my #1 situational choice for Q as-is.

Tamas Ferencz Mar 16, 2013 (12:26)

Hmm... Hrisinye ter amna otsole atta.? Might work, in most cases.

I find it useful to say the S like chinese pinyin Q in between SH and S Q is a little harder

Thanks, +Joseph McKellar - my question was rather how to translate 'almost' into the two languages, I just used an unfortunate term. But thanks again!
