I think that the grammar is fine the way it is. I agree with you
completely that all LFN really needs now is more words, which is
happening at a steady pace. If you can't find a word in the LFN
dictionary, submit it to the wiki and have it evaluated by the
community. If a word is agreed upon, it will be added to the dictionary.
(LFN)
Me pensa ce la gramatica es oce como es aora. Me acorda completa con
tu ce LFN manca sola plu parolas, e persones es sujestente regula
parolas. Si tu no pote trova un parola en la disionario de LFN, junta
el a la vici e la comunia va revisa el. Si la comunia acorda con un
parola, la comunia va junta el a la disionario.
