Or more precisely, go to figure from distraction, by way of up the >wall, driving your mind! Oh, that makes sense. It's assigning sumti attached with "be" to the places of "klama" before the untagged, unattached sumti, shifting sumti down the order if there's a collision. Not that that's the official interpretation, of course. I wouldn't be surprised if you're supposed to assign sumti left-to-right regardless of "be" and not inside-out. Looks like jbofihe is first assigning sumti attached with "be" and then starting over with the unattached sumti. However, I don't think trying to merge two different sumti chains is something people could do very well in real-time. -- EWC
