In usage, when people want to ask about the truth of a bridi, they put xu

Well, except that {xu} behaves exactly the same way regardless of where it is
placed.  To be sure, rhetorically, when a word is emphasized, the answer may
go beyond the simple yes/no required by {xu}, but that is courtesy not
grammar or semantics.
