Usage notes

  • When the subject is only tok ("mi") → [[Contionary:{{{3}}}|{{{3}}}]] ("{{{4}}}") or only sina, the following tok ("li") → [[Contionary:{{{3}}}|{{{3}}}]] ("{{{4}}}") is dropped.
    • Use of li between additional predicates varies. Some speakers use li in all instances but the first. Others prefer to start a new sentence, repeating sina as the subject.
  • When number must be specified, sina wan, sina tu, sina mute, and similar words are commonly used.
