vt use
pre with
→ Just like lon, kepeken can be used both as verb and as preposition. However, lon doesn’t have a direct object, it merely indicates that place of being (mi moku lon tomo - I eat IN the house; kili li lon poki - the fruit SITS IN the basket). kepeken does have an direct object, and requiers as a verb e.
mi kepeken e ilo - I’m using a/the tool
ona li wile kepeken e ilo ni - he has to use that tool
jan ni li kepeken e poki ni - that person is using that cup
→ kepeken as preposition
mi moku kepeken ilo moku - I eat with a fork/spoon
ona li lukin kepeken ilo suno - He is looking with a flashlight/torch
compare: ona li lukin li kepeken e ilo suno - he is looking and is using a flashlight/torch
