How can he keep going there if he is no longer going there? I don't think {za'o klama py} can be the same as {klama lo bancu be py}. Predicates with built-in location places are very nasty when mixed with tenses, because the built-in places don't go away. A related problem is that FAhAs can't be used in those places. For example, to say "I go from under the bed to inside the closet" I can't use {ni'a} and {ne'i} for "under" and "inside", I have to use {le cnita be} and {le nenri be}. Similarly, I would think we can't ignore the destination place of {klama}, if something is no longer a destination it shouldn't be said that it keeps on being a destination. co'o mi'e xorxes ________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------ WRITERS WANTED!
