Exercise 7 in unit 11
Why didn’t we translate the last exercise (as well as ‘more spirit’) with rywtìlcd —?
Solution
As tà cd. is a sub-category verb of rà w., the latter can absorb the former:
tìlcd rÌwy cÌhwy. ⇔ rìlw cyhwÌ tÌcdy. → tìlcd cÌhwy.
tìlcd rÌwy cÌhwy. ⇔ rìlw cyhwÌ tÌcdy. → tìlcd cÌhwy.
more-cons1 amount-acc-acc2 hair-acc-acc3. ⇔ amount-cons1 hair-acc-acc2 more-acc-acc2. → more-cons1 hair-acc-acc2.
