LU is not directly related to sentences: inside it can have
more than one sentence, and as a whole it is just a sumti.

In parser terms, a sentence is a selbri plus zero or more
preceding and/or following terms, the prenex is not defined
as a part of a sentence. Maybe it would be better to use
{bridi} for that.

We can of course define the prenex as part of a sentence.
The bit between succesive .i can also include fragments.
Is a fragment a sentence?

Also, at the start of text we can have weird stuff that
can't appear between succesive .i, for example {djan ua}
(but not, for some reason, {ua djan}). Is {djan ua} a
sentence?

TUhE can bracket more than one sentence. Is the bracketed
result just one sentence?
