“Potted salmon with ash and some sort of salty stone would be a good food i presume”


(edit) forgot to add ablaut
Notes
a) The negated determiner is fronted unlike other determiners
b) The anterior in this sentence is framing it against the future implying that the potted salmon should be made, if you dropped it you would imply you do not know if we have potted salmon currently while at least implying we should have it, such usages of the anterior are allowed where it normally wouldn't be i.e in the framing verb of the sentence

Notes
a) The anterior in the beginning is used in a perfect sense (which is attested in several daughters), to use the plain anterior with the first verb of the sentence would otherwise not be used since there’s nothing to frame it against.
b) On is clearly derived from the word for “Breasts” an alternative reconstruction deriving from “Palm” is also seen
c) Oblique + Instrumental construction here
d) The use of the demonstrative instead of a pronoun is i believe a sufficient translation of the dropping of the one here in english
e) Note the doubled anterior to imply these events occurred even earlier than the ones before
f) I like the usage of reduplication to show more than one amount of time but less than two amounts of the same time
