Re: needing 2 taxis

UC>If "waiting for a taxi" is "waiting for loi taxi", how do we say
UC>"we're waiting for two taxis". Does "reloi" do this?

No.   Since masses are intended not to be used where singular plural
distinction is important, then "waiting for  two taxis" is ALSO
"waiting for loi taxi" in a sense.  Thuink again about how you ask for
a mass noun in English  "I am waiting for some water" is the mass
expression whether you are waiting for 1 glass or 2 glasses.

To make the distinction clear you could wait "loi taxi pamei" vs.
"loi taxi remei", or you could wait for "pa/re selci poi taxi" which is
more or less the same as "pa/re [lo] taxi"
