notes

e.g. fi'u re si'ei lo vo prenu = "half of the four people (i.e. two of the four)"; contrast with fi'u re lo vo prenu = "a half person of the four people (!)". fi'u re si'ei lo vo prenu is equivalent to lo fi'u re si'e be lo vo prenu. Other possible uses: ci fi'u vo si'ei roi = "three quarters of the time", pi mu si'ei moi = the middlemost member of a sequence. See si'e
