"na" does not claim that there exists any relationship between the sumti and can be interpreted as "it is false that". "na'e" means other-than and asserts that there is a relationship between the sumti but it is not the particular selbri (in this case 'need'). A subtle difference. ni'o co'imi'e dn.

In fact, this year even the usually vibrant Jameldic community failed to do this sort of thing. Most of the local Association Members were away or working, and the diaspora were also either working the weekend or, unfortunately, broke.
