Re: Wants and needs
This is a language I made up in about 2 hours called Spraka.
I want money.
Ketlehafefila.
/ˈke˧.tleˌxa˧.feˌfi.la/
Ketle-hafe-fil-a

I need money.
Ketlehafepraha.
/ˈke˧.tleˌxa˧.feˌpʁa.xa/

I lack money
Ketlehafeniha.
/ˈke˧.tleˌxa˧.feˌni.xa/
Ketle-hafe-nih-a
money-have-NEG-1S.PAT
This language is completely ridiculous :P

Ðeneydabus
Ðeneydabus is a split ergative language; when the agent is first or second person, the patient is formed with the construction þo + dative/lative. Otherwise the patient is formed with the absolutive case, and the agent with the ergative (-að for indefinite or -eið for definite).

Re: Wants and needs
That's just a reminder for me that it means "being in such a state", instead of countrystate or explainstate.
For the actual meaning of quantum state, one should use some quantum mechanics/physics reference elsewhere.
