Re: "What I have for dinner depends on what there is in the fridge"



Okay, so to settle this all once and for all, which one is correct?

la djan. djuno le du'u makau klama =
John knows the bridi (who (ind.) goes).
John knows who goes.

1) ro da zo'u la djan. djuno le jei da klama
for every X : John knows the truth value of (X goes)
No matter what you're thinking of, John knows whether it goes or not. (my
favorite)

2) [su'o] da zo'u la djan. djuno le jei da klama
for at least one X : John knows the truth value of (X goes)
There's something such that John knows whether it goes or not.

3) ro da poi klama zo'u la djan. djuno le du'u da klama
for every X that goes : John knows the bridi (X goes)
For everything that goes, John knows it does.

4) [su'o] da poi klama zo'u la djan. djuno le du'u da klama
for at least one X that goes : John knows the bridi (X goes)
There's something that goes which John knows does.

Or you could do something nasty with "tu'a" that I won't think about now.
