"barely caught/missed the train"



TRENE NERKLA or RENKEMNERKLA = to board a train (further action implied)
TRENE NERKLA BANZU = sufficiently to board a train (i.e. only just)
TRENE NERKLA NARBANZU = insufficiently...(i.e. not quite)
TRENE NERKLA BANZU BE'UNAIRU'E = (more explicitly) only just...
TRENE NERKLA NARBANZU BE'UNAISAI = "     "      not quite...
TRENE .UO = (abbreviated) made the train
TRENE .UONAI = "     didn't make it
TRENE .UORU'E = "    barely made it
TRENE .UONAISAI = "  barely missed it

i rather think in actual practice, words like SELTSE &
(NA) ZUKTE will be used. SELTSE NARZUKTE JIBNI condensed
to TSEJBI .UU ; you only talk about a TRENE when it's important
to emphasize: ...to x2...from x3...via x4...in system x5, as
opposed to a LITRU: ...via route x2...using x3; or other VELKLA.
