THE DEROGATORY Nouns can assume a derogatory prefix, su-, used to indicate that a noun is debased, broken, spoiled, diseased, weak, inferior or unpleasant. It does not denude a qualitative noun of its quality, but makes that quality undesirable in some way. sunadh sundrogh sumydh sumbradh sudhryn sundroudh suheorn sufheand sufhem sumfles sungaurn sunglean sungordh sungron suhend suhes suhron sulam suleom sumegh sumour sulordh suragh suradh susdhar susfhraun suscron susmaun susogh susedh sumas sumayan sulerm sumayos peculiar or unearthly beauty a pointless duty a corrupt, useless or tyrannical king a broken table a crude, primitive language a wretched dog, mongrel, mutt a diseased or blind eye a broken or blunt sword the arrogance of nobility a broken or inaccurate bow a stagnant or dried-up pond a crippled hand a weak or sickly bear poor quality iron a wretched child vile greenness a bastard brother spoiled or sour milk an ugly flower a wretched girl or whore a wretch or scoundrel ineffectual strength tainted or diseased blood a degenerate, primitive or sub-human a terrible omen or portent of doom a yob, thug, layabout or scoundrel a feeble warrior a broken or untuned harp rotten or worm-eaten wood overpowering pefurme foolhardiness a terrible mother a broken or leaking vessel stagnant or filthy water
POSSESSIVES <strong>Adhrynn</strong> denotes possession in six slightly different ways, depending on the relationship between two nouns.
