Re: TECH: QUERY: quantifier scope & cumki

 How does one distinguish:
   For every x, it is possible that x is ....
   It is possible that every x is ....
>++++++++

I don't see a problem:

ro da zo'u cumki fa le nu da broda

cumki fa le nu ro da zo'u da broda


Until I noticed your subject I thought you were asking a different
question - not about the predicative 'it is possible' but about
the operators of modal logic - 'it is possible that' and
'it is necessary that'. Somehow the selbri 'cumki' and
'nibli' don't seem right for these.
