“The tall (and) thin man with the white hair is my friend’s uncle”.
[th t=
all and thin man with th white hair d is th i friend uncle] .
“u alti e =
tenu homi ko u i alba kapila du es u mi ami parenta-fratri .”
[u alti e te=
nu homi ko u alba kapila] [ du es] [u mi ami parenta-fratri] .
“u alti ..=
…” indicate /one; “du ……..” info / time (now with
duration) /=
flow of meaning from indicate to info; “u mi…….” info/one .
“u al=
ti e tenu homi ko u alba kapila du”
we know that the indicate phrase start=
s with “u” and ends just before “du”,
the phrase has two parts- the seco=
nd starting with the “u” after “ko”
the last word in the first half “ hom”=
i is the main/head word, “alt”i and
“tenu=A3 add precision to “ hom”i. “k=
o … kapila” also add precision to “homi”
“u mi ami parenta-fratri”
“mi” =
adds precision to “ami” because “mi” does not stand alone and is after
“u=
“, it is “my” in english, “my friend”.
“ami” adds precision to “parenta-f=
ratri” and is “my friend’s uncle”
“parenta-fratri is the main/head word=
“
notice that “mi” adds to “ami” which adds to “ parenta-fratri”
but both =
“alt”i and “tenu” separately add to “homi”
so we have
introducing word fo=
r noun phrase also carrying number, precision
words/adjectives main word =
“the quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog”
and e
brown bruno
dog k=
ani
fox vulpes
jump salta
lazy anti-ergo
over supra
quick tako
any offers?=
