UC>How do you distinguish, (preferably in non-pedantic usage):
UC>
UC>  I need there to be a specific book such that I have it.
UC>  There is a specific book such that I need to have it.

UC>  I need there to be x, such that x is a book & I have x.
UC>  There  exists x, such that x is a book & I need to have x.

1)  mi nitcu lenu da zo'u da cukta gi'e se ponse mi
2)  da zo'u tu'e da cukta .ije mi nitcu lenu mi ponse da


In 1), the "da" in the prenex within the "lenu" clause is not exportable
 outside of that clause.

I think this covers your distinction, if I understand it correctly (no bets %^)
