I didn't want it to be guessable, only interpretable (which it
evidently isn't).

Why not "is the property of being a liker of whisky"? That's
what I wanted. [You would want "ka keha vusnei", but this
isn't official, is it?]

I want:
naho ku loi buha be lo gligicnau cu puhu
.i naho ku lo kotnau ku zohe ge se buha gi cerda
I thought NU is a selbri that optionally takes a bridi as its
complement. Here I meant puhu to be a selbri without a bridi
complement. If that's ungrammatical, then I guess I'd want
naho ku puhu buha be lo gligicnau
> From the prenex bu'a doesn't have an x2
If buha = ka ... kei, shouldn't x2 be the possessor of the property?
"Lo se ka"?
I will post the original text in due course, but I would like to see
if I can get across its meaning independently.
