"I really want it to rain instead of snow and be warm instead of cold."<br />
 
===  Proposed Definition of ''nu'i'' ===
 
;'''nu'i''' (NUhI): Starts a forethought termset. The terminator for "nu'i" is "nu'u", which is often elidable.
 
** Keywords: forethought termset
 
===  Examples of ''nu'i'' Usage ===
 
abu troci le nu vreta gi'e punji nu'ige lo cidni le lamji be le vorme gi le drata birka le sruri be le stedu<br />
 
''She tried the effect of lying down with one elbow against the door, and the other arm curled round her head.''
 
nu'i ge'i li no pi mu fo li no gi li no fo li pa dilcu fe li pa li re<br />
 
"Does 0.5 remainder 0 or 0 remainder 1 equal 1 divided by 2?"
 
===  Proposed Definition of ''nu'u'' ===
 
;'''nu'u''' (NUhU): End forethought termset. Usually elidable except when sumti follow the termset. It also goes before the "gi" in forethought termset logical connection, but there it can generally (always?) be elided.
 
** Keywords: termset terminator
 
===  Examples of ''nu'u'' Usage ===
 
nu'i ge ko mi ca ku gi mi ko ba ku nu'u spuda<br />
 
"Answer me now and be answered by me later!"
 
"I asked first!"
 
la .djan. fa'u la .frank. cusku nu'i bau la .lojban. nu'u fa'u bai la .djordj. [[jbocre: nu'u|nu'u]]<br />
 
"John and Frank speak in Lojban and under George's compulsion, respectively."
 
===  Proposed Definition of ''pe'e'' ===
 
;'''pe'e''' (PEhE): Marks the following connective (either JA or JOI?) as the connector of the containing termset. Goes between sets of "ce'e"-joined sumti.
 
** Keywords: termset connective
 
===  Examples of ''pe'e'' Usage ===
 
mi pe'e ja do ce'e le zarci cu klama le briju<br />
 
"I go to the office and/or you go to the market from the office."
 
mi djica ta'e ce'e tu'a lo ckafi pe'e je ta'e nai ce'e lo tcati<br />
 
"I normally want coffee, occasionally tea."
