There was a discussion on something related a while back. What does {le re nanmu cu cinba le ri speni} mean? Is it "each of the two men kisses his (own) spouse", or "each of the two men kisses their (common) spouse"? I'm inclined to think it is the first, but I don't think there ever was an authoritative answer about that. (If it is the first, that would be an example where {le} isn't on an independent branch, I think.) Jorge
