Yes, {ku}, but it's elidable, so it doesn't need to be explicit. jboski doesn't always handle elidable terminators very well. > Can a modal directly be followed by a modal? A term can folow another term. {cu'u [ku]} is a term and {fi'e ko'a} is another term. > What > does it mean? Doesn't it need an argument like "cu'u ko'a fi'e ko'a"? As Robin said, he meant only {cu'u ko'a}, it was a mistake in editing. {cu'u ku} would mean something like "said by someone unspecified". > Is > there any kind of logical or non-logical connectives that can go between > modals? Yes, they can be connected with {je} or {joi}. mu'o mi'e xorxes
