Accordingly, I would
suggest that {na'o} covers both time and space, as in 'birds typically
fly':
ro da na'o ga na cipni gi vofli
ro cipni na'o vofli
Is this meant to be {na'o ku ro cipni cu vofli} or {ro cipni
na'o ku vofli}? Can we say {le vi cipni na'o ku vofli}?
This has the useful consequence of dealing with those lions in Africa cases: ro cinfo na'o xabju le friko
I'm not sure I see it. I'd like to see an example of {na'o}
with individuals before I can understand what it means with the
quantification. What would it mean to say {la djan na'o xabju
le friko}?
In summary: ta'e = recurrently na'o = typically/generally in the world so'e roi = usually1 so'e mu'ei = usually2
I think I understand "recurrently", but I'm still not clear about "typically/generally in the world" when applied to particular sumti. mu'o mi'e xorxes _________________________________________________________________Surf the Web without missing calls!
