Discussion of "po'oi"

Comment #1: cei
Riley Martinez-Lynch (Sun Nov 29 01:00:55 2015)

In 1997, jcowan proposed a special use for cei with bu'a/bu'e/bu'i
that resembles po'oi:

"cei" doubles up the functions of "goi" and "poi". When applied
to an assignable pro-bridi, it assigns it; when applied to an
existential pro-bridi, it restricts it. This isn't explicitly
stated in the book because I was leery of saying too much about
second-order quantification when my understanding of it is
quite shaky.

la xunkcu never uses cei for po'oi, right?
