Can you write a > bunch more of it? 8) I would if I could think of what else to say about it. "mu'ei" just is not as hard as folks think. I guess I should point out that the use of PAs like re, ci, vo with "mu'ei" does not make too much sense, since we can't for real *count* the states of the world; they are like the reals in that way. So the vague PAs like "so'V" and "su'o" and of course "ro" and "no" are the best words to use. I have to say, the use of short words and naught else, though, is quite tough. I trust you like my use of them? (I too like praise, heh heh.) > I can translate. Good. -- A poetical purist named Cowan [that's me: jcowan@reutershealth.com] Once put the rest of us dowan.
