You don't need the R there. What I don't remember is if it is merely unnecessary or actually wrong. Why do you use {kanxe} instead of {je} or {joi}? I don't think this is about conjunction of propositions. Another possibility: {dutsimxre}, "mixture of opposites". >2) if one tends to count by fives of things (as we think in >"twos" (opposites), would this be: 'five-basis' MUMCMU, 'fivesome-basis' >MUMEMCMU; or would the latter become, as a >lujvo, MUMYMEMCMU ? {mumemcmu} is {mu memcmu}. I'm not sure how you would use the word, but something like {mumselcmu}, "x1 has 5 as a basis" might make more sense. Another possibility: {mumrauci'u}, "5-degree-scale". >3) & also, how to talk about thinking-in terms of-a given >count-as basic? 'basic unit of counted things' CMUTERKANCU, or >'basic set of things counted' CMUSELKANCU ? (i am leaning >toward the latter). I'm not sure I understand. Does it really have to do with counting? co'o mi'e xorxes ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Show your style!
