questions



There are some things that are bothering me, and some of them have been
discussed before, and I don't remember what was said about that...

1) I seem to remember that somebody used "ko'a poi du ko'e" form. Is it
   possible? Parser doesn't like it (I guess it doesn't think du is
   a selbri). Is this legal sumti? Is it gendra?

2) I tried to find a word for "set", and the closest I could find were
   te porsi (which implies that the set has some ordering relation
   defined) and se cmima (which does not imply that the elements in x2
   are the complete enumeration of x1's contents). Is there a better
   choice?

3) How does one say "any two of the man, the woman and the kid"? That
   is, how does one extract n elements from the ce-specified set? The
   best I could think of is "re lo cmima be le nanmu kuce le ninmu kuce
   le verba". Is there a way of doing it without cmima? Something with
   LU'A? I tried "re lu'a ny. ce ny. xire ce vy.", but parser won't
   allow that.

Please?

P.S. BTW, And, yes, that ought to have been NItcion. I don't even know
why I wrote the way I did... .uanai
