===A short introduction===
[[Eighth_edition_lekma/Smallset|Small set]]
 
__noeditsection__
Through making a miniature language, I learnt a lot about the capabilities of languages. To know more is the reason for lekma/ˈleχmɐ/, which is under development.
 
A sentence in lekma consists of, an interjection/connection + agent × object × verb ÷ adverbial phrase + a subject/topic × a particle(, is it? thing).
