ancē
On to the next sentence of the LCC4 relay text, sentence 10:
wÄ pa riÄ“n ancÄ“ ja serle ien jasÅra wÄ«jtÄ“ ja la lewÄ“ra lÄ;
wÄ pa riÄ“n ancÄ“ consists of the negative clause-level modifier
wÄ, the relational pa, the 2nd person singular pronoun riÄ“n, and the stative noun ancÄ“ “ability”. Not having verbs, one doesn’t have modals like “can” either, and so those concepts have to be conveyed some other way (if at all). wÄ pa riÄ“n ancÄ“ is “You haven’t the ability” or “You can’t”. What you can’t do is in the subordinate clause modifying ancÄ“. More on that tomorrow.
