(ni'e can eventually be done as {mo'e LE}.) But I'm still not very clear on how to use mo'e. According to the Codex, {mo'e re ratcu} is the dimensioned number "two rats". Then {mo'e re da} must be the number "two things", and {mo'e da} the number "at least one thing" (not just some number, which would probably be more useful). And {mo'e lo spaji} would be the dimensioned number "at least one surprise", not some surprising number. Is that how you understand it? mu'o mi'e xorxes _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp
