| Representative,
I realize that, despite my word otherwise, we have not worked together much. I apologize extensively for this; the health of my husband has occupied what free time I've had lately. Thankfully, things should be returning to normal. Irregardless, I have much planned, and much I wish to accomplish in the remainder of Moff Levi's dictated term; all of that, I hope, will include your contribution and consultation. For now, I must keep this short, but I seek your counsel. On the matter of the legislation I have before the Senate at the moment, what are your thoughts on adopting the term Eleemosynary, in place of Humanitarian, on the bill, and all relevant changes that would be required?
Sincerly,
Augusta Aurelius Queen Conosrt of Deralia Chair of the Human Rights Monitoring and Crisis Resolution Sub-Committee of the Planetary Defense Committee
Senator of Deralia and the Tammuz Sector (30 BBY - 18 BBY, 10 BBY - Present)

| Senator Aurelius,
Basic is a far more concise tongue than Tammuz (too concise is my opinion, with too few words and modifiers to speak subtleties of, say, one's emotions). There is a word in Tammuz that is meaning "enraged to within a moment of violence but still hopeful for a calming of tempers." (translated loosely). And Tammuz traditionally is spoken slowly, compared to Basic speaking, so I have patience when it comes to language and I am of no problem with this word "eleemosynary" as long as others will understand it in addition.
I'm saddened to learn that your husband is not well. I wish him the best of recovery. There is a matter I am of interest to speak with him, and coincidentally it is about the Tammuz language. I have asked Moff Levi to make Tammuz the "second language" of the Tammuz Sector, and he is willing of this if the funds can be raised for it. The Tammuz people on Deralia and throughout the Tammuz Sector would be of appreciation if Deralia is able to contribute to this. What is your thinking on this?
With friendship,
Vilish Galt Representative of Tammuz-an and adviser to King Julpa
