Ah, and in that case "My heart beats 100 times a minute" (which doesn't
mean "Everything is such that either it is not a minute or my heart beats
100 times during it") could be said as:
bikla fa le mi risna ze'a da pa no no roi ro mentu pe da
-- I think that finally that solves it. It would be nice to do
better than {pe}, though. Would {be ca da} work, so as to be
more explicit?
--And.
