But {bi'u} already has a different function there. In {le bi'u nanmu goi ko'a}, we want ko'a to be the one that gets assigned the referent of {le bi'u nanmu}, not the other way around.

I meant "le nanmu goi bi'u ko'a" marks "ko'a" (the dependent of goi) as definiens; of course "bi'unai" would mark it as definiendum. -- There is / one art || John Cowan <jcowan@reutershealth.com> no more / no less || http://www.reutershealth.com to do / all things || http://www.ccil.org/~cowan with art- / lessness \\ -- Piet Hein
