I had been wondering if a modal built with fi'o/fe'u might accept arguments for the other than x1 places this way: {mi viska do fi'o kanla be la djan fe'u le zunle} Yeah, quite non-sensical example, but it's the example given at chapter 9 section 5 of the reference grammar with a "be la djan" added. Apparently the formal grammar listed at chapter 21 supports this even while this is not mentioned in the text. Is it right? Or am I misreading the YACC code?
