But, it does give the right parse. {pi'i} is the operator, {mo'e da} and {mo'e da} are the operands. I'm not sure why this would put things in the wrong category. But I wouldn't have the category 'operand' distinct from the category 'sumti' to start with. >{ro xy} is refused altogether; {ro xy} is like {pano}. >{roboi xy} is accepted as something, Lord knows what. >But {ro ko'a} is OK, as is {ro ri}. Those are {ro[boi] ko'a} and {ro[boi] ri}. The terminator is elidable in these cases, but not in the case of {xy}. >Apparently letterals are not pronouns in >the same sense that {ko'a} and {ri} and {vo'a} are. It is letteral strings, not just letterals, that are pronouns, though the most commonly used are the single-letteral strings. These strings have to be separated from one another and from quantifiers with the termiantor {boi}. mu'o mi'e xorxes _________________________________________________________________ Join the world’s largest e-mail service with MSN Hotmail. http://www.hotmail.com
