Comment #5: Re: what
Alex Burka (Mon Jun 30 16:14:13 2014)

jbovlaste mangled my response pretty badly. Here it is again.

All right, this makes some sense (and I like the elephant pun, now that
it's explained). The definition could be much clearer. Also, since we
already have the ko'V/fo'V series which does not forget its assignments,
I'm not sure kau'V adds a ton of value: I believe (please correctly me if
I missed some nuance) that your example is the same as «ko'i goi di poi
ke'a gerku zo'u ko'i batci mi .i ko'i zvati ti». di may be lost in the
next sentence but ko'i should persist until da'o.
