"need any box of a certain kind":
{nitcu lo'ei cmima be lei'e klesi be lo'i tanxe}.
Also {nitcu lo'ei cmima be le'ei klesi be lo'i tanxe}
should work as well. (And I don't see why {nitcu loi'e
cmima} would not work just as well.)
Maybe you can even get away with:
{nitcu lo'ei lu'a le'i tanxe}
-- I think you can.
Not grammatical. But, if we accept that {lu'a} is
{tu'o lu'a} them {nitcu lu'a le'i tanxe} will do.
Or just {nitcu le'ei tanxe}.
"There is an apple of a certain kind that I ate": mi citka lo lu'a le'i plise
Not grammatical, but fixable to:
mi citka su'o lu'a le'i plise
Not really different from: {mi citka su'o le plise},
since "an apple of a certain kind" is just "one of certain
apples".
