Proposed Definition of ve rai

ve rai (BAI*)

Superlative among. Tags a sumti as fitting the 4th place of traji. Augments the bridi in which it occurs, adding an extra, un-numbered place with the meaning of the 4th place of traji and then fills it with the tagged sumti. In other words, the event described by the bridi is associated with a superlative thing that is superlative among the referent of the tagged sumti, which should be a set or mass. See also: traji, se rai, te rai, ve rai.

Notes

• I've tried to mark all my made-up examples this time. Let me know if you think I missed one.

• I have edited some in-the-wild examples for correctness.

• "xructciof" may or may not be morphologically correct. Come back when the Morphology section is done.

Impact

Beyond clarifying how brain-numbingly useless some of the BAI are, none taht I'm aware of.
