Besides loan words (see the previous section, Loan Words), foreign words can be used directly in Ouxu text as roots (see Parts of Speech).
Roots are always inflected (see Inflections). To distinguish a foreign word used as a root from a native Ouxu word, mark it off with hyphens from any preceding and following elements of the word.
Example 3.3. Albuquerque
albuquerque-he albuquerque+place at Albuquerque
cifafhocacag-albuquerque-he left+bend+trajectory+albuquerque+place a left turn at Albuquerque
