LOL, and you're moving beyond my pitiful grasp of the technicalities of grammar here, I think.

Declension and conjugation are efficient ways to talk, but agglutination is efficient for nouns; considering the complexity of human language, I don't see why it can't be a bit of both. :D I do think that most words for sex would be rooted in bo -- boai for giving joy, boch for giving love of any kind, with an added suffix for the sort of love.

So if Jack wanted to say he had sex to show his love for his boyfriend and he topped, it would be tanbochhai'bo. tan (indicating male homosexual) bo (giving) ch (love) hai (of the passionate sort) 'bo (act of giving, as opposed to act of receiving).

Of course given the sexuality of the 51st century, you could also add a suffix or prefix to indicate that he had sex with someone else to show his love for his (presumably voyeuristic) boyfriend.

I think it would be hilarious if "Ianto" meant something filthy in Boesiane.
