INTERJECTIONS.

273. Interjections are words used to express feeling or call attention.

Among the more common interjections are:

Adiaux! Farewell! (171). Hura! Hurrah!

Fi! Fie! Nu! Well!

Ho! Oh! Ho! Ve! Woe! (Ho ve! Alas!).

[Footnote: Verbs in the imperative, and adverbs, are frequently used as

interjections, as "Atentu!", Look out!, "Auxskultu!", Hark!, "Bonvenu!",

Welcome!, "Antauxen!", Forward!, "Bone!", Good!, "For!", Away!, "Ja!",

Indeed!, "Jen!", There!, Behold!]

[Footnote: The interjection "fi" is sometimes used as a disparaging

prefix, like "-acx-" (272), as "fibirdo", ugly bird, "ficxevalo", a

sorry nag.]
