Miru kami yumukawa pine matu yakere kutu we yapunewa "tupi" yaporiwa "hino" we yenaruwa taimakawa matu miti yehukawa Tunu. (I too use certain common words such as "time" or "duration" to make conjunctions in Tunu.) "yehino nokewa..." = "which lasts (and) reaches..." = until "wi hino wo" = "@ duration of" = (at some time) during "wi kewaru wo" = "@ un-next of" = before etc. µ. http://conlang.free.fr
