Let's work with actua= l examples:

    le bolci cu zunle le kubli mi
  &nb= sp; le bolci cu mlana le kubli fo mi

The ball is to the left of the c= ube (considering the cube as facing me).
The ball is to the side of the = cube (considering the cube as facing
or with its back to me, same thing)= .

The "front" of the cube is the side that faces me.
In this case,= the ball has no face, so x3 of mlana is meaningless,
right?

>T= he note in the cf. applies in particular to zunle and pritu, and I was

= Front of x2, right? Not front of the speaker.

&g= t;orientation is not so limited, and x2 could be facing in any direction, a= nd

Coul= d you give an example? Do you mean that I could say
{le bolci cu mlana l= a djan} when the ball is in front of
John? In that case, what would I pu= t in x3 and x4?

=

Isn't x4 of mlana the same thing as x3 of pritu/zunle?

I'm not sure I understand what x3 of mlana is fo= r yet.
