Other options: manfykurfa, dikykurfa, > pa'erkurfa. I didn't think of {dikykurfa} which now seems the obvious one. Thanks, But, what is {manfykurfa}? {manf} is not a rafsi. In any case, what I don't understand is why the gloss in jbovlaste for {kurfa} is both 'square' and 'four sided shape'. How can it be 'square'? For that matter what does vote information 100000 mean? mu'o mi'e .andrus.
