cmavo: fu'e (FUhE)
Proposed Definition
Begin indicator scope. Normally, an attitudinal applies to the preceding word or construct. fu'e and fu'o together mark the begining and end (respectively) of an alternate scope that can have attitudinals applied to it. Such attitudinals appear after the fu'e or fu'o and apply to the entire text surrounded by them (which can cut across other structural bounds, or be smaller than other constructs). fu'e and fu'o constructs can be nested. A fu'e without a corresponding fu'o applies until the end of text (or utterence). A fu'o without a corresponding fu'e applies retroactively back to the beginning of text.
See Also
Proposed Keywords
- begin indicator scope
Usage Examples
- mi viska le fu'e .ia blanu zdani fu'o ponse
- I see the owner of what I believe to be a blue house.

Such attitudinals appear after the fu'e or fu'o and apply to the entire text surrounded by them (which can cut across other structural bounds, or be smaller than other constructs). fu'e and fu'o constructs can be nested. A fu'e without a corresponding fu'o applies until the end of text (or utterence). A fu'o without a corresponding fu'e applies retroactively back to the beginning of text.

- terminator
Usage Examples
- See examples under fu'e
Notes
I've tried to make re'e, ro'a, ro'e, ro'i, ro'o, and ro'u consistent with regard to how their negative and neutral forms work. In all cases, the cu'i form is almost like a na'e, that is, the emotion is said to apply to a different aspect. The nai form acts like to'e, being the opposite of the unnegated form. Some of them still need keywords, as the old keywords like "denying emotion" don't apply (there's no emotion to deny).
- UI4 should be CAI. UI doesn't modify UI, CAI does. — donri
Impact
Negated UI4 may have shifted meanings slightly. The book doesn't really specify what they mean when applied to an attitudinal (instead of just used alone), so they haven't seen much use. Consequently, there isn't much old
usage to invalidate.
Added the ability to nest fu'e and fu'o, and semantics for what happens if they are unbalanced. Also added the ability to attach an attitudinal to fu'o (which isn't mentioned in the book). None of these should alter previous usage, only add new possible uses.
