1- I assume that (1a) lo cipni cu blabi gi'e vofli expands to: (1b) su'o da poi cipni zo'u ge da blabi gi da vofli and not as:(1c) ge su'o da poi cipni zo'u da blabi gi su'o de poi cipni zo'u de vofli
2- I assume that: (2a) lo cipni cu blabi gi'e na vofli therefore expands as: (2b) su'o da poi cipni zo'u ge da blabi gi da na vofliIf this is correct, here we have a {na} (in 2a) that does not export to the first place in the
prenex. In 2b it does, because there is a prenex after gi:
(2b) su'o da poi cipni zo'u ge da blabi gi naku zo'u da vofli
3- I assume that:
(3a) lo cipni cu na vofli gi'e blabi
expands to:
(3b) su'o da poi cipni zo'u ge da na vofli gi da blabi
and not to:
(3c) naku su'o da poi cipni zo'u ge da vofli gi da blabi
i.e., I'm assuming {(na vofli) gi'e (blabi)} and not {na (vofli gi'e blabi}.
I believe this is how the parser would group it, though that is no
guarantee of anything.
If this is correct, then comparing {lo cipni cu na vofli} with
{lo cipni cu na vofli gi'e blabi} we see that the final {gi'e blabi}
completely turns around the first part. Very weird...
