Hello!  I've been studying gzb for a few months-- badly, I'm afraid,
but I have picked up a few things. :)

One thing I know is that names are followed by a suffix, depending on
what kind of name they are.  First names take the suffix "-ram", for
instance, and last names take "-sqam" and languages take "-lam" and
places take "-wam", etc.  So for instance my first name in gzb is
"bret-ram", which I sign conlang-related emails with sometimes.


*kq goq, hqaxsina-ram hoq.


I think I said hello to you! :)

<3,
bret-ram
