I would have expected something like "opposite of interesting". .a'u is "interest" but .a'unai is glossed as "repulsion"... could I also use it for "this is boring"? As in {.a'unai le veltivni cu spofu}? And as for the adjective -- tolci'i? tolzdi? mu'omi'e filip. -- filip.niutyn. All opinions are my own, not my employer's. If you're not part of the solution, you're part of the precipitate.
