Definition #68964 - Preferred [edit]
   
selma'o LOhOI
definition Creates a predicate abstraction sumti out of a full bridi clause, binding all the necessary lambda variables to the ko'a-ko'u pronoun series.
notes lo ka ce'u ce'u ce'u broda (ku) = ko'ai ko'a ko'e ko'i broda (ku'au). In the rare cases where more than five lambda variables are needed, ko'a xi PA might be used. Indicating the number N of lambda variables in forethought can be acheived with ko'ai xi N. See also fo'ai, ce'ai.

Definition #72014 [edit]
   
selma'o LOhOI
definition Creates a predicate abstraction sumti out of a full bridi clause, binding all the necessary lambda variables to the ko'a-ko'u pronoun series. The number of bound variables must be indicated by appending {xi} followed by that number to the word {ko'ai}, unless only one variable (namely {ko'a}) is bound, in which case the {xi} marking is optional.
notes "lo ka ce'u ce'u ce'u broda (ku)" = "ko'ai xi ci ko'a ko'e ko'i broda (ku'au)". In the rare cases where more than five lambda variables are needed, ko'a xi PA might be used. If the x1 slot of the following predicate is not explicitly filled, it is assumed to be filled implicitly with ko'a, and not zo'e. See also fo'ai, ce'ai.
