Dictionary notes

Words are organized by part of speech and then organized alphabetically by English translation, unless otherwise stated. The English word is listed first, followed by the Rokadong word.

When a Rokadong word has multiple English translations, they will be listed on the same entry, comma separated, with the earlier one in the alphabet listed first. When an English word has multiple Rokadong translations, these will be listed on separate lines, with the difference in parentheses.

See the "Orthography" and "Phonology" pages for how to pronounce the Rokadong words.
