I've been wondering about the semantics of NU. The truth and amount
abstractors are clear enough, so are those in the za'i series, but what is
the difference between

leka brode
lenu brode
leli'i brode
lesi'o brode
ledu'u brode

a ka has to be supported by some nu for it to be true, this is also the case
for the others.

could these interpretations be possible?

leka brode du lenu ka'e brode
ledu'u brode du lenu ca'a brode
lesi'o brode du lenu nu'o brode
leli'i brode du lenu pu'i brode
