Subject: grammar corrections

Chapter 20 reads:

> selma'o CEhE (Chapter 14, Chapter 16)

> Joins multiple terms into a termset. Termsets are used to associate
> several terms for logical connectives, for equal quantifier
> scope, or for special constructs in tenses.

>      mi ce'e do pe'e .e la djan. ce'e la djeimyz. cu pendo
>      I [,] you [joint] and John [,] James are-friends-of.
>      I am a friend of John, and you are a friend of James.

Is this correct? chapter 14 says quite something different:
firstly, I would expect the ".e" to be "je"
secondly, I thought this sentence means:

  I am a friend of you, and John is a friend of James.


Furthermore, chapter 12 reads, just below example 14.6:

> Note that this lujvo is symmetrical between ``lantro'' (sheep-
> controller) and ``gerku'', but ``lantro'' is itself a asymmetrical
> lujvo.

It should be "an asymmetrical", not "a asymmetrical"
