da'a


la lojbab cusku di'e

This is why I introduced da'a (which BTW I think should be used
instead of me'iro, which flashed by my screen in the last couple of days in
some context).


Is {da'a} by itself {da'apa} or {da'asu'o}? The latter is
indeed equivalent to {me'iro}.

In fact, da'a converts among all four quantifiers:

da'a ro = no
da'a no = ro
da'a su'o = me'iro
da'a me'iro = su'o

BTW, I was using {da'asu'o} for "not all" before you suggested
using {me'iro}. I now think {me'iro} is a bit better because of
the above table, but they are logically equivalent in any case.

This is where you suggest {me'iro}:

Invoking Whorf, if I say that noda poi jelca is in the drum, then that
really means NOda, and lighting a match should be safe.

How could you possibly light a match under those conditions?
