With optional case tags, the arguments of a predicate can be put in non-standard order. The case tags listed below in the table are semantic case tags; another set of case tags are non-semantic and based on the standard order of the arguments of the unconverted predicate: zua = ‘the normally first argument’; zue = ‘the normally second argument’; zui = ‘the normally third argument’; zuo = ‘the normally fourth argument’; and zuu = ‘the normally fifth argument’.
