Re: [jboske] lexicalizations for truth/degree operators (was: RE: more true




la and cusku di'e

+ + -   na'e ja'a ku
- + +   na'e na ku
+ - +   na('e?) ja'a cu'i = na('e?) na cu'i

These are not grammatical, as NAhE can't modify NA.
{na'e bo na ku} is also not grammatical, but it approximates

DEGREES OF JA'A CU'I
?? : sorta-but-closer-to-being-POS-than-NEG
?? : sorta-but-much-closer-to-being-POS-than-NEG
?? : sorta-but-somewhat-closer-to-being-POS-than-NEG
?? : sorta-but-slightly-closer-to-being-POS-than-NEG
?? : sorta-but-closer-to-being-NEG-than-POS
?? : sorta-but-much-closer-to-being-NEG-than-POS
?? : sorta-but-somewhat-closer-to-being-NEG-than-POS
?? : sorta-but-slightly-closer-to-being-NEG-than-POS

Maybe {ja'a cu'i xi pi PA}

I can't imagine using so much detail though.
