The Concise Na’vi Dictionary v. 11.468

Compiled by Taronyu (Richard Littauer)www.LearnNavi.org

Last updated: December 2nd, 2010

This is a Na’vi Dictionary, without derivations to help searching. Thank Tuiq for allowing itto be. Bold indicates Na’vi word. Italics indicate English definition. Plain text indicates gram-matical categorisation: parentheses indicate further notes. I have included mid-dots in the IPAto mark where infixes are to be placed, where t«pre-first»«1»ar«2»on are the positions. Propernouns have been capitalised. Knowledge of lenition processes, including vowel reduction andellision, will be assumed. Note also that allomorphs, where specified, are subject only to per-sonal preference.

Abbreviations:

– = morpheme boundary+ = leniting morpheme boundary<> = infix morphemeadj. = adjectiveadp. = adpositionadv. = adverbconj. = conjunctionc.w. = compound worddem. = demonstrativeintj. = interjection

inter. = interrogativen. = nounnum. = numberpart. = particlepn. = pronounprop. n. = proper nounv. = verbsvin. = stative intransitive verbvtr. = transitive verbvin. = intransitive verb

Sources

I have sourced every word as best as I could. This sourcing is placed in a subscript after the IPAtranscription, and tells where I, or the source from which I received a word, initially got theirword from Frommer. In early March, Frommer sent us a list of words which he had: these arethe definitive source now, and not the ASG. Some words are not present in that list, but havebeen confirmed by Frommer if they are here. Words that are modified by unproductive affixesare included here if Frommer has used them: words that have a modified semantic meaningdue to a productive affix have also been included likewise. In order of canonicity, from mostto least:

• PF = Paul Frommer• M = The Movie• JC = James Cameron• G = the Avatar Games• ASG = The Survival Guide
