Curnow" To: lojban@onelist.com Subject: Sumti connectives <-> sentence connectives Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII X-eGroups-From: Richard Curnow From: Richard Curnow Given the following sentence : le nanmu e le ninmu cu citka le plise a le jbari which of the connectives 'e' and 'a' has higher 'precedence'? i.e. if this is expanded, is it equivalent to le nanmu cu citka le plise a le jbari ije le ninmu cu citka le plise a le jbari or to le nanmu e le ninmu cu citka le plise ija le nanmu e le ninmu cu citka le jbari I think if the connectives had been the same (le nanmu e le ninmu cu citka le plise e le jbari) it would make no difference. However, I don't recall coming across a discussion of what happens if the connectives are different. saurbi'o fami .isaurbi'o fado .i.ia.ua co'o mi'e ritcyd. -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Richard P.
