The one that >And called the "coordinate" case would give the nine combinations: A >touches a, b and c; B touches a, b and c; and C touches a, b and c. >That's the one we would get with {e}: > > ci da poi nanmu e ci de poi gerku zo'u: da batci de pi'u is clearly the appropriate cmavo for the coordinate case. I will let the logicians figure out whether .e means this also, or could mean something else. If it was "ko'a goi ci lo nanmu ge'u .e ko'e goi ci lo gerku zo'u ko'a batci ko'e", I would not presume the coordinate, but rather the collective. lojbab
