lesson24

hello,
i hope these comments are useful to you ram (these and all that preceded).
sts.

lesson24:
	The science teacher asked me to show you the black ice in
	  the refrigerator.
	Gida kobyo te banto mi javezdimba tumi bumeze bumyu
	  fudindu bumespu.
sts:
"to ask someone to do something" is not the same as "to ask someone a question". are they both "gida"? 

lesson24:
	My father explained to me that it's difficult to walk here
	  because of his bad leg.
	Koda bupu foy mi bucayzdanta macayski kwa vakxe caynze
	  bucansa buho.
sts:
parsing this sentence, i think that a walk, that is because of his bad leg, and that takes place here, is difficult. but it is difficult because of his leg, so i'd say: 
Koda bupu foy mi bucayzdanta vakxe caynze bucansa buho macayski kwa.
or is that indifferent?
