  1. ok....i kiss a frog, and it MORPHS into a gorgeous man!

    hows that?


  2. That's an agglutinative language, like Basque and the Ainu language.

    Always a total bugger to figure out.

    I'll have a go.

    Noruso is a singular verb. (one person doing one thing).

    Roruso is a second person version of the verb, specific to one object.

    Adding durudo makes it a plural verb for two people.

    Adding bidurumo makes it plural  for three including the speaker.

    Adding durumo makes its a verb describing a groups (including the speakers) actions.

    What language is it?
