Editorial note — Front matter (continued 4)
Reading edition
Verbs in the imperative, and adverbs, are frequently used as interjections, as Atentu! Look out! Aŭskultu! Hark! Bonvenu! Welcome! Antaŭen! Forward! Bone! Good! For! Away! Ja! Indeed! Jen! There! Behold!
The interjection fi is sometimes used as a disparaging prefix, like -aĉ- (272), as fibirdo, ugly bird, fiĉevalo, a sorry nag.
