Re: nasin suli pi jan Melin
Dear janKipo, thanks for your help. Don't need with 'nanpa' + number, ordinals are treated like cardinals (recent change?) I wanted to say "introduction" which seems to me close to "nimi pi nanpa wan", literally the words number one... 'toki Lasina' for Latin, not 'toki Loma' (or...

Re: meli sama tu
tenpo mun ali I think I made a countersense by using "tenpo mun" for "night". Thus "tenpo mun ali" was for "every night". Should I use "tenpo pimeja ali" instead? This is the "stop" for which Sonja once proposed 'pake' I dont have it in my...

Re: akesi kon tu
mi SIKE E SUNO LON TENPO luka tu I suppose this means "I circled the sun seven times". Why use "lon" there? Why not "pi"? In a more compact way, I think we could say : mi sike e suno luka tu -> I circled seven suns As we are not in an inter-galactic story, we can assum...

Re: akesi kon tu
Dear jan Kipo, thanks for your help which is very appreciated. Voltikeln. no v in tp, no consonant clusters in tp, no ti in tp. It is hard to drop so much letter. I choose Monteken... "He evilly had a head surface of dead heads" I don't get "head surface". I suppose you have dead...
