Note for our ESL readers

Submitted by Angela Class (United States), Jun 13, 2007 at 22:17

Note to clarify for our ESL readers: When I said "construction" I was referring to "root construction" for example S-L-M, the root from which the word is constructed.

For those of you who know English and have read the whole thread, I'm sure that's more than obvious.
