Oops. I wrote:
li mo'e loi menske pa'i mo'e loi menli du li mo'e loi ji'eske pa'i loi xadni
as mekso for the proportion statement. Aside from the fact that I'm not
sure we can get away with {pa'i} (are we really *dividing* here???), the
grammar's wrong. {menli du} winds up a tanru. I need at least
li mo'e loi menske pa'i mo'e loi menli ku du li mo'e loi ji'eske pa'i loi
xadni
with a {ku} to break it up ({lo'o} might be clearer, but a syllable more).
Hardly matters, but thought I should be thorough.
