I don't understand (again :-) A property abstraction is not the same as a predication abstraction. (an indication of this seems to be that a useful x2 place has be given to du'u and not to ka). And on the other hand I see no reference in the book for the use of ce'u with du'u. But I do not want to trigger again a discussion you had before: maybe you could just give me a reference in the list archive. Or maybe pc wrote a summary of this discussion issues, like some others I found in the archives. mu'omi'e lioNEL ------------------------ Yahoo!
