Perhaps you meant "ka'e" instead of "ko'e". It would also seem that you want "lo nu" or "le nu", because nu has no x2 place, and you not want the le before ko'a, because that would be a bare sumti where a bridi is wanted. Assuming those, we have: Cover for the sun and is not capable of causing ko'a to be awake. -Robin -- http://www.digitalkingdom.org/~rlpowell/ *** http://www.lojban.org/ Reason #237 To Learn Lojban: "Homonyms: Their Grate!"
