BTW.  I was agreeing that it did seem odd that we disti= nguished types of events as subordinate but not in main clauses. I have tri= ed to figure out what the logic differences are among the event types and t= hey all seem to be about what one can say and I am not sure how they work o= ut in Lojban.  I think we can distinguish ending from completing (vita= l for activity-process); I am less sure about other notions.  An achie= vement is generally the completion of a process, as it's telic  nature= more or less guarantees, though sometimes the mere change of state, withou= t reference to the forces involved, is also included: eating after a period= of frustrated attempts, surely, change of energy state of an electron not = so clearly.  In any case, these differences, if they are significant a= t all, are surely as (or, probably, more) for main clauses, where the actio= n is.  But I am not sure they matter at all since the can be built int= o the presuppositions of any argument where they play a role.

No need for "nu'ai". "nu" is already, by definition, the cover term for the four event categories: pu'u, zu'o, za'i and mu'e.

mu'o mi'e xorxes
