 If we want to say "not all those who wander are lost", we might accidentally say:
-{{Example|<ruby>Bu<rt>not</rt></ruby> <ruby>tıeqbıao<rt>lost</rt></ruby> <ruby>tú<rt>each</rt></ruby> <ruby>neqkoı<rt>wanderer</rt></ruby>.<br>&equals; Tú neqkoı nä, bu tıeqbıao néqkoı.|Each wanderer is non-lost. 😱}}
+<blockquote>
+{{Scope|1=red|2=Bu tıeqbıao <b>tú</b> neqkoı.}}<br>{{Scope|1=red|2=<small>∀ neqkoı</small> Bu tıeqbıao <b>néqkoı</b>.}}<br>Each wanderer is non-lost. 😱</blockquote>
 To get the right meaning, we have to instead say
-{{Example|Bu tıeqbıao sá neqkoı.|Some wanderers are non-lost.}}
+<blockquote>
+{{Scope|1=red|2=Bu tıeqbıao <b>sá</b> neqkoı.}}<br>{{Scope|1=red|2=<small>∃ neqkoı</small> Bu tıeqbıao <b>néqkoı</b>.}}<br>Some wanderers are non-lost.</blockquote>
 Or we can use the verb {{t|sahu}} "to be false":
-{{Example|Sahu, ꝡä tıeqbıao tú neqkoı.|It's false that each wanderer is lost.}}
+<blockquote>
+{{Scope|1=red|2=Sahu, {{Scope|#09f|<b>ꝡä</b> tıeqbıao <b>tú</b> neqkoı.}}}}<br>{{Scope|1=red|2=Sahu, {{Scope|#09f|<small>∀ neqkoı</small> <b>ꝡä</b> tıeqbıao <b>néqkoı</b>.}}}}<br>It's false that each wanderer is lost.</blockquote>
