Well, you can say "whetherever" with just the meaning you want "whichever of them". It's marked obsolete, but it looks worth reviving. For the rest, we've obviously read the cmavo listing on {je'u} differently -- and I have to admit that your reading makes more practical sense (except, perhaps, for a logical language). {da'inai} clearly won't work for that usage. But {xukau brode} is an indirect question, so not even close to a tautology marker. I know that ther has been a lot of fiddling with {kau}, but none of the moves would seem to justify this particular step. Expatiate. |
