Stan jam lo explicava; io pote adder que le polonese (e russo) ha
MINUTA/SEKUNDA feminine.

Le latino classic ha:

1. Puella qui ex Italia venit est bella.
2. Puella quem amo est bella.
3. Animal quod currit me timet.
4. Animal quod habeo est ferum.


Dr. Rainer Thiel observa:

Il es un poco differente in Interlingua:

"Que Deo sia laudate" = "Let God be praised"
"Sia laudate" = "[You] be praised"

"sia" ES un imperativo in Interlingua.

Tote lo es ver.
