vocabulary. For example, the adjective forms of Minitrue, Minipax, and
Miniluv were, respectively, Minitruthful, Minipeaceful, and Minilovely,
simply because -trueful, -paxful, and -loveful were sliightly awkward to
pronounce. In principle, however, all B words could inflect, and all

make of this in Oldspeak would be: 'Those whose ideas were formed before
