shifting in tanru



I looked around in the CLL but couldn't find an answer.  I remember at one point reading/hearing that in {da broda brode de di} the form is that {da} fills the x1 place of broda and {de} and {di} fill the x2 and x3 places respectively of {brode}.  Am I right so far in this?

My question is: is the rule here that anything to the left of the selbri tanru gets put into the x1/x2/etc... of the leftmost valsi and everything on the right goes into the xn/xn+1/etc... of the rightmost valsi?  Or is it just that the x1 fills in the x1 of the leftmost valsi and everything else goes into the rightmost.

Sorry, I am still confused about which is which in the seltau and tertau nomenclature so I'm using "left" and "right" instead and assuming that we'll just leave {co} out of this for now.
