This, I think, should be left to the idiom of the conlang in question. In my language, it would definitely be "for", because "of" just wouldn't sound right.

I doubt whether the average conlang makes the difference :) Jan ===== "You know, I used to think it was awful that life was so unfair. Then I thought, wouldn't it be much worse if life were fair, and all the terrible things that happen to us come because we actually deserve them? So, now I take great comfort in the general hostility and unfairness of the universe." --- J. Michael Straczynski __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
