Suppose you tell me "I need a box to put these books in.
Please get me one."

I would say: {mi nitcu lo'e tanxe lo nu setca
lei vi cukta ty i e'o ko cpagau mi ty}.

If you say: {mi nitcu le tanxe lo nu setca
lei vi cukta ty i e'o ko cpagau mi ty}, I will
ask "which box is it that you're talking about?"
