Since mulayi in this sentence functions as an auxiliary, the
sentence is a simple one. And as all other auxiliaries, it

no semantic conflict results.

adjectives in the complements, but only when beu 'DES' is
used. The three verbs are usaha, si, and cuba. usaha means

experiment, besides the meaning of making an attempt.

'I tried hard to stumble.'
158. Lon-ci beu teugantbh-lon.
1-try DES stumble-1
