Example 14.49.
mi klama le zarci .ije mi nelci la djan.
I go-to the market, and I like that-named John.
is equivalent in meaning to the compound bridi:
Example 14.50.
mi klama le zarci gi'e nelci la djan.
I go-to the market and like that-named John.
As Example 14.50 indicates, giheks are used in afterthought to create compound bridi; gi'e is the gihek corresponding to “and”. The actual phrases klama le zarci and nelci la djan. that the gihek connects are known as “bridi-tails”, because they represent (in this use) the “tail end” of a bridi, including the selbri and any following sumti, but excluding any sumti that precede the selbri:
Example 14.51.
mi ricfu gi'e klama le zarci
I am-rich and go-to the market.
In Example 14.51, the first bridi-tail is ricfu, a simple selbri, and the second bridi-tail is klama le zarci, a selbri with one following sumti.
However, chapter 21 has
sentence 40 =
[terms [CU #]] bridi-tail
so no sentence can have more than one bridi-tail.
