 Okay, maybe now I'm confused.  Why is the last sentence not "ro _le_
gerku cu xekri"?  What is thte difference in implication?  Can "le"
perhaps mean that only the two dogs that are owned by ONE (or other
subset) of the girls are black, while "lo" forces all of the dogs
owned by all of the girls to be black?
