!Proposed definitions {BOX()} !! cmavo: fi'o (FIhO) !!! Proposed Definition Converts a selbri into a tag. The tag modifies a sentence or connects two sentences. When modifying a sentence, the tag can take an argument that further specifies it and which fills the first argument of the converted selbri. !!! Proposed Tag !!! See Also * {fe'u} !!! Proposed Keywords * selbri to modal * nonce modal/sumti tag !!! Usage Examples ;doi .deivid. do no roi klama lo cinri fi'o kansa mi:''David, you never come to interesting places with me.'' ;lo citno nanla cu gleki catlu lo kacma fi'o se jbini lo pendo be ny:''The young boy looked happily into the camera, standing among his friends.'' ;do facki fi la lojban. fi'o tadji fe'u ma:''You discovered Lojban by what method?'' {BOX} {BOX()} !! cmavo: fe'u (FEhU) !!!

that specifies the tag. *The sense of {fi'o ''selbri''} as a bridi operator has to be defined for each ''selbri''. In many cases it will correspond to the sentence filling the x2 or some other place of ''selbri'', but this only works when ''selbri'' will admit a sentence as one of its arguments. A general orientative rule might be that the sentence fills the first place (after the x1, which is already accounted for) that will admit a sentence. If there is no place that will admit a sentence, then the relationship is a vague one. *The negation unary operator, NA/NA KU, can also be expressed as {fi'o natfe} or {fi'o natfe lo fatci}. For example {mi fi'o natfe fe'u klama le zarci} ''that I go to the market is contradicted by the facts" {mi na klama le zarci} ''I don't go to the market''. *Bridi operators in general are not commutative, so the order in which tags appear with respect to negation, quantifiers, connectives or other tags matters. The general rule is that a bridi operator has scope over the operators that follow and is within the scope of preceding operators. *As binary operators, only some tags are meaningful. For example {pu gi ... gi ...} and {ri'a gi ... gi ...}, but not {bau gi ... gi ...} or {ka'a gi ... gi ...}. In general, {fi'o ''selbri''} will be meaningful as a connective if the x1 of ''selbri'' is meaningful with a sentence. ! Poll {POLL(pollId=>46)}{POLL}
