No. The first one says: that thing which is every thing, is a broda. Unless there is only one thing in the universe (and it brodas), then it can't be true. The second one says that everything is a broda. (Now if {da} were a plural variable, that could take more than one value at a time, they might be equivalent. But in that case we would need to define {ro} better.) mu'o mi'e xorxes __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
