Hi, Isaac. We could have gone that way, but lfn tends to stick to the forms found in the romance languages, and to make adjectives more basic (unlike "famosa"). For example, we decided to go with "fame" for the adjective "hungry", "fami" for the verb "be hungry", and "famia" for the noun "hunger". It's not always easy to decide. Unless you intend to create a true "logical" language (like Lojban), you have to make these decisions.

Best wishes,
Jorj
