New Data: Definition: alias for «lu'a ma'o'ei»; convert / quantify / interpret as … Notes: If {lo} is general, it could be understood to also leave individuality / togetherness or singular / plurality vague and unspecified. {lu'a'ei}, besides supporting arbitrary sumti conversions and interpretations, can be used to indicate ‘each’ individual under singular logic (recommended idiom: «{lu'a'ei} {karncau}»), or only as under plural logic (similar to Lojban masses, as though it is also composite sumti that are valid sumti interacting with the bridi) (recommended idiom: «lu'a'ei {tolykarncau}»), or as either singular or plural logic (recommended idiom: «lu'a'ei {norykarncau}»). Note: when combining with e.g. {poi}, the {lu'u} terminator can control when interpretation / conversion is done. As a less rigorous shortcut for some forms, the modal {koi'au} (and {koi'aunai}) are also provided, e.g. «le koi'au prenu» for ‘each (individual / separate) person’. Thus «lu'a'ei {karncau} lo broda» declares and specifies individuality and denies it is {loi} or pluralistically quantified, making this usage of {lo} closer to pre-xorlo {lo}.
