A newer version has been uploaded, that fixes this a= nd makes several improvements. Several words previously not recognized now= are. For example, implementors or implementers now returns ‘?plu-instrume= nta-pe’, whereas the previous version would leave out the ‘pe’, physician o= r mathematician now produce correct results, whereas previously they’d go u= nrecognized.

Previousl= y, I had thought of not translating ‘the’ and ‘a’ since these words are oft= en left out in Glosa. This version translates them and ‘an’ as ‘u’. Some = definitions in the dictionary consist of several Glosa words, as for exampl= e ‘gene ma boni’ for ‘reform’ and ‘pa grafo’ for ‘wrote’.
