	I have my own way of writing a gloss since, until recently, I have been the only person to ever look at them. I know it isn't the typical way you might see a linguist do it.

			===Conjunction ''a''===
			The conjunction ''a'', often translates well as "that." it joins two verbs (and the verbs must be adjacent to ''a'' on both sides), for example:


			I know that we will run in the park. <br>
			I+SUBJ know [a] run+FUT we+SUBJ park+LOC. <br>
			lo luusi a kidya mo qopeafe.


			I know that he likes cheese.<br>
			I+SUBJ know [a] like he/she cheese+OBJ.<br>
			Lo luusi a ine ke bajass.
