ZAIhU

definition

Quote conversion: the sentence(s)/bridi (possibly plural) is/are syntactically correct and semantically intended by the utterer if the outermost layer of quotes (markers) which immediately follows were to be omitted/removed, but the quoted text is in fact a quote (of the indicated type) from some source.

notes

The immediate next word must be a quote indicator (such as lu, zo, etc.) or another free modifier (possibly including other members of ZAIhU; for the purposes of these notes, this option will be ignored); the scope of this word terminates simultaneous with the scope of the quote which is introduced by the next word. The type of quote (direct, error, one word, etc.) is indicated by the next word.
