[[La Bangu: dictionary|La Bangu type system

La Bangu type system mostly distinguishes between

  • strictly NU-abstractions and topics (that can be NU-abstractions but perceived as objects from the raising viewpoint)
  • a te bridi requiring a plural sumti, a sequence, a singular sumti
  • realis/irrealis te bridi
