"The boy and the man are good."

Why not syrī taoba valā issi

I think that would be "Good boy and man are", which doesn't make that much sense. "To be" basically functions as a "=", so the sentence needs the two sides of the equation. I think if you put "good" before "boy and man" you put them all on the same side of the equation.

Ah yes you are right. "Sȳri taoba valā issi" in english is "They are a good boy and man". I'm sorry

Ahh all right thanks, I was thinking of something else then

Don't know. "Sȳri taoba valā issi" should be correct in my eyes
