CHAPTER 3       INTENSIVE REDUPLICATION
A characteristic feature of Vulcan language is intensive reduplication 
which is employed with action words, entity-words as well as qualifiers:

3.1. With actio/state words, e.g. "Krokroykah" (Stop definitelt at once!)

3.2 With entity words e.g. "th'at t'hyleat i-plaplak" (This {precisous} 
    blood of my friends)
    "the'at t'hyleat a-plakhi krokroykah" (Stop {intensive} that {visible}
     blood of our {exclusive} friends!).

3.3 With qualifiers, e.g. "Kirk'at sb'sbah plakhi kroykah" (Stop the {very}
    red blood of Kirk!).

3.4. Grades of qualifiers:
        Grade 2: infixation of repeated stem-vowel,
        Grade 3: further reduplication of final syllable.

Examples:  "atsk" (big) > "atsak" (very big) > "atsakak" (immensely big)
           "itsk" (small) > "itsik" (very small) > "itsikik" (infinitely small)
