I was thinking about this, and I think I've used it before, but isn't {ka} on the same footing as {du'u} in that it always designates the only member of a singleton set?
I think so, yes.
(The thing that brought this up is that I was using abstractor connectives
Abstractor connectives are evil and should be avoided at all costs. :)
---I wanted le'e nu and le ka. Since the gadri are different I got to thinking about this. (I ended up having the gadri for {nu} "take precedence" in the connected thing (as le'e nujeka), justified by the gadri for {ka} being essentially only syntactic since it is always {le})).
How can something be a nu and a ka at the same time? And if something were both nu and ka, then using {le ka} would suffice, given that we've agreed that ka is always a singleton. I believe you want just {nu}. I would say {lo'e nu terpa cu menli catra}, since I don't have some specific set of events in mind to use {le'e}. Having the property can kill, but I don't think the property itself can. mu'o mi'e xorxes _________________________________________________________________Protect your PC - get McAfee.com VirusScan Online http://clinic.mcafee.com/clinic/ibuy/campaign.asp?cid=3963
