Which passage in chapter 5 gave that impression? =A0From what I unders= tand, the bridi can be thought of as the whole sentence. =A0The selbri is t= he relationship word that pulls the whole thing together, and the terbri, w= hich are often sumti, are the places.

"sentence" isn't quite the right word, actuall= y, since you can have bridi nested within a sentence e.g. =A0"lo gerku= ku nelci lo nu pinxe lo djacu". =A0I would say that the whole thing i= s a "sentence". =A0The whole thing is also a "bridi". = =A0"pinxe lo djacu" is also=A0a bridi. =A0And "lo ger= ku", "lo nu pinxe lo djacu", and "lo djacu" are al= l sumti as well as terbri.

oh wow. what other dames do you have for that book? = speaking of cll, it looks to me, from chapter 5, that a bridi is a sentence= without the selbri. am i understanding this correctly because if so, why w= ould you want to use a bunch of sumti without a selbri? the sentence wouldn= 't make s5se, it seems.
