How silly. Thankyou, i’ve fixed it now. It doesn’t make much sense at all to say “I will see you yesterday” – i’m just so used to using “ngòlé” because of all the questions we’ve been asking about things that happened in the past, so I wrote that automatically. (This is a good example of why ‘linguistic priming’ is not ideal!)

Thanks Lobong :)

Hi Rosey,

The Lopit sentence is okay except for the word ‘ngole’ (yesterday) should have been ‘moite’ (tomorrow).

“hómó bìnó”
