How random is that example?
I don't know, I think it and "already" are the ones I
have had most difficulty with, and they are indeed very
much related. What do you think of {ji'acai}, an extreme
"also", for "even"?
If pc is going to make a RECORD of this, may I remind the
community of my formulation:
lo broda = da poi broda
le broda = ko'a voi broda
I think this neatly encapsulates the facts and could save
a deal of exposition.
Yes, it is a nice encapsulation..
There are no gadri for "da voi" or "ko'a poi", but they
complete the paradigm.
But they are simple enough to get:
su'o le broda = da voi broda
ro lo broda = ko'a poi broda
co'o mi'e xorxes
