kexien

Sentence 9 in the LCC4 relay text:

kexien jahē lā;

Here is a three word sentence that is going to require two posts. 🙂

kexien is a clause level modifier that denotes that the speaker has expected whatever is in the clause. I usually translate it as “of course”, but “expectedly” is also correct. So the woman is signalling that she expected this sort of situation.
