Tanru on the other hand have no problem because the relationship between the seltau and tertau is vague so {broda broda} could mean any number of different things and the "reasonable default assumption" will be different depending on what gismu {broda} is.

I don't quite get how one gets grandmother out of mamymamta, though
I've confused the special significance that an x1 place has before.

It seems in this case though that mamymamta either takes one meaning
for the first mam (mothering) and another meaning for the second
(mother), or that my gloss for mamta is wrong and it doesn't express motherness at all, but an actual mother.

What am not understanding?
