Example 55-70
- Comment:
- We feel that elliptical answers to questions such as 'whose book is this' (pu ki sa liv la) are less common than subject + predicate answers, e.g. li pu mwa [it for me] 'it is mine' or li mo liv [it my book] 'it is my book' occur far more often than simply pu mwa [for me] 'mine'.
