That Boris [in reality] died was both likely caused by the Germans and likely caused (by someone) using poison.Ah, I didn't realize that independent likelihoods were wanted. If you don't want to repeat lkn- and gsn-, this looks like a job for a double v-: le fe la q boris qa mrsbnxa li lkni fi la va dtca lo vo vndo ju plnako gsnake As for Boris' death, the likely thing is that the Germans rather than whoever, poison rather than whatever, using it they caused it. Though I'm not sure whether the two v's are evaluated independently or one under the other.
le fe la q boris qa mrsbnxa li lkni fi la vi dtca lo vi vndo ju plnako gsnake fi binds vi (ni'uki). I think it means that Germans using poison to kill Boris is more likely than nonGermans using nonpoison to kill Boris.
