14.22. Rules for making logical and non-logical connectives

The full set of rules for inserting na, se, and nai into any connective is:

Afterthought logical connectives (eks, jeks, giheks, ijeks):

Negate first construct: Place na before the connective cmavo (but after the i of an ijek).
Negate second construct: Place nai after the connective cmavo.
Exchange constructs: Place se before the connective cmavo (after na if any).

Forethought logical connectives (geks, guheks):

Negate first construct: Place nai after the connective cmavo.
Negate second construct: Place nai after the gi.
Exchange constructs: Place se before the connective cmavo.

Non-logical connectives (joiks, joigiks):

Negate connection: Place nai after the connective cmavo (but before the gi of a joigik).
Exchange constructs: Place se before the connective cmavo.
