English-Ido Dictionary

that: (adj.) (i)ta; (object) (i)to; (who which) qua; qui; quo; (conj.) ke; (of that kind) tala; t. can: see suffix -iv-; t. must be: se suffix -enda; t. is not easy: to ne esas facila; to do t.: facar to; after t., he left: pos to, o pose, il departis; t. is to say: to esas; what is t.? quo esas to? take t. book: prenez ta libro; the book t. I gave you: la libro quan me donis a vu; after t.: pose; besides t.: ultre to; instead of t. he..: vice ke il…; so t.: (in such a way t.) tale ke; he spoke so t. I believed him: lu parolis tale (od, tal-maniere) ke me kredis lu; until t. time: til ta tempo; some time after t.: kelke pose; in order t.: por ke (with imperative); I tell you now t. you may be prepared: me dicas ol a vu nun, por ke vu esez preparita (od pronta). NOTE (taken from the Hugon-Moore Ido Grammar); The word that is very often omitted in English, but should never be omitted in Ido; (1) The book I gave you (= the book that (or which) I gave you), La libro quan me donis a vu (in this case “that” is a pronoun: (2) I think he will come, (= I think that he will come); Me opinionas, ke il venos. (In this case “that” is a conjunction). It is generally omitted in English after verbs like to think, to hope, to wish, to believe. It is impossible to pay too much attention to this rule, as the correct use of the word ke is the key to a good international style for English-speaking students).
