masses




la djorden cusku di'e

[1] On a totally unrelated topic, I just realized that a lot of the
brivla which I've been using generally with mass articles (djacu,
cakla, canre, etc---mass nouns) are defined with "x1 is a quantity
of...", which seems to make it already a mass?  Does this mean that
lei cakla refers to a mass of masses of cakla, in the same way that
le'i selcmi is a set of sets?  This would certainly seem to make
sense, as I dunno what le calka/etc means otherwise...

That's the way I understand it too.
