That can be fixed by giving a general rule of interpretation that works for all cases: left to right scope. So for example {co'a ze'u broda} is the start of a long brodaing, while {ze'u co'a broda} is the long start of brodaing. One of them is currently split with ku, I don't remember which. > The X-ku Y-ku > breakup at least gives an interpretation for odd strings, even if it may > not be the one people would like.
