== Notes ==
* Pronunciation is an obstacle, as always:
* ''Fractlcilinu v uqcari'' is [fr&ct@lc5IlInu2 7v(j){ELISION}uq(nar)carI], recall that the apposition particle ''v'' is palatalized.
* ''trcarn ldud'' is [t4caa(~)Rl(~)du2D].
* uqcari is ''uq''- "of the mind" and -''cari'' "network", contraction of ''carsapi''.
