Ok, but I'm still not convinced. But first lets split the sentence into two propositions:
1. {mi baze'upu bajra} specify in which time interval my running takes place. No problem to understand and we could as well simplify this into just {mi ze'u bajra} to get to the point.
2. {mi co'a bajra} says that in the beginning of some unspecified interval goi X I start running.
Case I: Is the interval X identical to {ze'u}? In this case the event of my running must be in the beginning of {ze'u}.
Case II: Is the interval X not specified in the bridi at all? In this case the beginning of running takes place in some unspecified interval and the interval {ze'u} says that this running takes place for a long time interval in the beginning of the unspecified interval.
Ok, so which interpretation do you choose?mu'omi'e jongausib--2013/7/3 Michael Turniansky <mturniansky@gmail.com>
Well, the way I would interpret that sentence is "I will be having started to run, for a long time" That is to say, I interpret it as mi ba ze'u (pu (co'a bajra)). See for example 10.3.16 That is, I would interpret all tenses as going outward from the selbri. But reasonable people may disagree with me. And so may unreasonable ones. I live it up to you to interpret which category the toltu'i be mi are in.--gejyspa--On Wed, Jul 3, 2013 at 8:42 AM, jongausib <so.cool.ogi@gmail.com> wrote:
What is the proper interpretation of the sentence {mi baze'upu co'a bajra}?
1. That the "start running-predicate" takes place through the whole intervall, which probably means that the start running intervall is a part of some other unspecified intervall.
or
2. That I start running in the beginning of the intervall {baze'upu}.
or something else?
I couldn't figure this out by reading CLL or BPFK sections, so please help!
