Word Trains

In English you can write a sentence that end in five prepositions, e.g. “What did you bring that book that we didn’t want to be read to out of up for?”

Similarly, in tp. you can have phrases of 4+ words without a function word (e.g. pi, li, e, la, ni, kepeken, etc), but the cognative burden of parsing such a phrase is very high.

mi li wile e ilo mute jelo suli pona Epanja.

I want many, yellow, big, good, Spanish things.

I want good Spanish lemon-yellow bundles.

etc.

You can’t tell if we have two word modifiers or what going on.  Obviously breaking up word trains with function words would probably make the sentence clear.
