In [http://listserv.brown.edu/archives/cgi-bin/wa?A2=ind0407a&L=conlang&F=&S=&P=10683 this Conlang post], David Peterson gives four verb types related to constructions like 'I hope that I'll be able to get to your house in time'. I'd like to know how do languages other than English handle such constructions - I'm looking for ideas for [[Kosi]]. Thanks :) --Trebor, 12:14, 3 July 2004

Ideas for Handling Four Specific Verb Constructions

I'm looking for help with Kosi. This Conlang post gives the four verb constructions I'm having trouble with. I'd like some ideas so Kosi can express these constructions differently from English. Thanks. --Trebor, 12:21, 3 July 2004 EST
