I think this particle is often overlooked and is also treated in a rather
sloppy manner. Many seem to assume that DE and KAI are synonomous.
I understand DE to be continuative and KAI to be adjunctive or ascensive.
DE is sometimes translated "but" in English. Once again, I see DE to be
primarily continuative while ALLA is adversative.
Has anyone on list done extensive work in comparing these particles?
