History: lerfu pro-sumti followed by number gotcha

Source of version: 1

Mentioned in ((the Book)), chapter 17, section 9, example 9.7. The dog spoke "Arf." It barked once. ''le gerku cu bacru zo .arf .i gy. paroi cmoni'' '''bzzt''' Correct is ''le gerku cu bacru zo .arf .i gy. boi paroi cmoni'' ''gy. pa'' is one lerfu-string, so ''gy. pa roi'' doesn't parse. It can be split into a lerfu-string plus a number with ''gy. boi pa''. It is easy to forget to add ''boi'' when you drop in a number or a second lerfu pro-sumti after one lerfu pro-sumti. Some may see this as a reason to prefer KOhA pro-sumti over lerfu pro-sumti. (See ((lerfu pro-sumti, and why ko'a sucks)).) If you aren't going to say enough to make ''goi ko'a'' worthwhile, try ''le gerku cu bacru zo .arf. .i ra paroi cmoni''
