Here are some examples:
"lo jbojbe na lojbo jbena lo jbojbena" consists of three parts differing only 
by spaces in writing, and by stress in speech.
"le krataigo" means "the hawthorn". "lekrataigo", if "le" is stressed, lexes 
as "lekra tai go", which is meaningless, but is part of the syntactically 
valid sentence "mi lekra tai go do gi ko'a".
