Frasi di esempio

  • The adverbial is ngugh. It is used mainly to emphasize that a particular event occurred at the same time as something else, though ngugh doesn't indicate what that time is. Something else in the discussion makes that clear. ngugh does not mean "at some (vague) time in the past" or "at some (unknown) time in the future." For example: ¶ vagh SanID ben buDbe' wamwI'pu'. ngugh Ho'Du'chaj lo' chaH, 'ach DaH tajmey lo'. 5,000 years ago, hunters were not lazy. Then (at that time) they used their teeth, but now they use knives.DungluQ tIHIv. ngugh Qongbe' chaH. Attack them at noon! They won't be sleeping then. (or: Attack them at noon. They're not sleeping then.) [1999-11-05-News (HolQeD-08-4-a pp.8--9)]
