I've abandoned the ergative idea. Thus, there is no longer any
antipassive inflections, and nouns have cases nominative, genitive, and
accusative.

Verbs now have auxiliaries for habitual voice (èsè + "habitual
participle", derived from agentive nouns, e.g., amator), progressive
(provisionally adláu + genitive, adláu < ambulare) and passive (çáu +
perfect participle, çáu = to be < stare)
