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>
|
|
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.
