Definite article is more used than English.  When used with a noun with n=
o
preposition can be standalone or attached to the noun:
di cansi (the dog)
cansin (the dog).

After a preposition or a conjunction the article is always atached to the
preposition or conjunction:
kuli cansi (of the dog)
kulia cansi (of a dog)
eli cansi (and the dog)
elia cansi (and a dog)

In any verbal function, verbs are recognizable because they have an {h}
after a vowel.  After the {h} there is a vowel indicating the subject:
laha: I love
lahe: you(sg) love
lahi: he/she/ir loves
lahia: we two love
lahiu: we(inc) love
lahei: she loves
lahoi: he loves
(don't remember al the pronouns)

Those vowels after {l} indicate the standalone pronoun (always in acusati=
ve)
Pronouns are attached to previous prepositions and conjunctions:
kul+la -> kulla: of me
kul+le -> kulle: of you
el+le -> elle: and you

So, what do you think?
