You're right. Actually {cmene} is there mainly to remind me the
difference with {cmevla} and {valsi} to provide a branch for the
different types of words.
I've added {slaka bu} and {denpa bu}. I was wondering if also add
{.y'y} ... The "thing to remember" in this case is that they are
letters and not punctuation but this seems a little bit weak to me...
I'll post a new version later, hoping for other comments to come.
Thanks!
