But, to cite a favorite quote from the movie, Matrix: arvagi g~amxrupu! ("There _is_ no spoon!") ;-) Well, they didn't exactly say it in rtemmu, but if they had wanted to, that's how it would be. :-) argavi = emphatic form of "va'i", the emotion indicator; g~am- = negation, lack of ; (g~ = [N]) xrupu = the process of being a spoon And let us not get into the various rates at which the non-existent spoon-process might be developing! (Anyhow, in rtemmu, rate-of change markers following "va'i" or "arvagi" may be optionally not expressed.)
