It sounds ghastly complex. It requires grammar changes. One possible way would be to add a rule to term, which allows creating a new subsentence: term -> [all old term rules] | ZOhOI subsentence ; Then you'd just start new subsentences wherever: mi djica zo'oi da poi mikce zo'u da Or some such. I guess the idea is that that quantification is then subordinate to the other quantifications. I don't fully understand how that is supposed to help though. -- Jordan DeLong - fracture@allusion.net lu zo'o loi censa bakni cu terzba le zaltapla poi xagrai li'u sei la mark. tuen. cusku
