Word List
Creatures are incapable of differentiating between many
objects, they lump them in groups.
For example carrots, cheese, lemons and honey are all "food".
Where words have two names, the one on the left is the one I use, usually because it is shorter, makes more sense or is easier to remember.
Those sections in grey are unused in the basic game.
