terzbacau: x1 lacks material to make x2
spisa: x1 is a portion of x2
nilcla: x1 is the amount of x2 being long in dimension x3 on scale x4

I can think of two possibilities for sortai:

sortai: x1 is a shape of many things
        x1 are the many-shapes of x2

kamsortai: x1 is the property of being a shape of many things
           x1 is the property of being the many shapes of x2

I have no clue what the tanru could mean. Can you use it in a 
sentence? :)
