<p>the particle anu isn't defined very well. <span class=sentence>lipu pu</span> documents it barely, and many other courses gloss over really trying to explain anu.</p>

<p>i'm gonna do my best to give a good explanation</p>

|

|
|
<p>anu is a conjunction meaning "or", both inclusive and exclusive. it works a lot like how li and e work, but instead of defining a new part of speech, it defines an or to the current part of speech.</p>

|

|
|
<p>anu does not automatically mark a question, although it might also be used for questions. it's another area where it's poorly documented, so a lot of people do different things.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>one way to use anu for questions might be to list the possible options, and then ask which option the listener agrees with.</p>

<p class=quote><span class=sentence>waso anu soweli li ken. seme li pona mute tawa sina?</span><br> ~ do you like birds or cats more?</p>
