Does {re roi la uenzdix klama} mean "go twice on Wednesday"?
You want {re roi ci djedi ku klama} to mean "go twice on each of 3 
days", so the going occurs over 3 days, six goings in all.
Whereas, standardly it means "go twice, each going occuring on
three days, = 6 days' worth of going, with two goings in all.

I don't really see why the nonstandard interp is so much better 
than the standard that it justifies its deviancy.
