I'm alright with including jan Pije's lessons, but others may feel differently. jan Pije Lesson 12 --JPeton (talk) 19:48, 22 February 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Disjunction

This is a tricky one: jan Kala in particular uses "anu" even to break sentences like "taso", so maybe he should be left out? I don't think it's fair at all to say that whether or not it is possible to use "anu" as a way of forming disjunctions is controversial per se: rather, the uncertainty about how it should be done has meant that it's hardly done at all (I confirmed this by trawling through utala pona winners for examples: many never use it, and the vast majority of the uses, including those who exclusively use it this way, are "anu seme" forms). I think (as a slight reformist soap box) that we actually *do* know how to use "anu" to form disjunctions, and that there are enough examples of its being used to be worth documenting here.
