.i .u'i ko tcidu lo se gi'uste velski be zo kantu

(Read the gismu dict definition for kantu:)

kantu         ka'u quantum
x1 is a quantum/ray/elementary particle/smallest measurable increment
of property/activity x2
7j   9    [quantum ray (= bonka'u)];
(cf. selci for masses and most objects; ratni, gradu, gusni, nejni, linji)

.i mi na djuno .iku'i ba'anai lo kantu na ka'e se fendi
.i mi selsau lo'e kantu be lo'e nejni .e lo'e kantu be lo'e datni .e lo'e
kantu be lo'e canlu joi temci .e nope'ida poi drata

(I dunno, but I, like, remember quantum units to be indivisible.
I know about quantum units of energy, data, and space/time, and
no other, I think.)
