definition
sumti place tag: apply arbitrary sumti application or termset
notes
One use is to apply a termset bundled as a single sumti (e.g. with sumpoi or lodu'u). Additionally, the sumti following fa'u'i can also include in its bundle an alternative method of how the (rest of the) sumti is meant to be applied (optionally with brevity with ju'e, joi, ju'ema'o'ei, or a bridi). How the application is done can be specified metalinguistically (see also baunpli), separately, or as metadata inside the sumti.
ni'o See also: lo'oi, for one possible way to analogize se for fa'u'i; pli'aje.
