Hi.

I had trouble with "te" in 6, but using the "context" of the
chapter's lesson (personal pronoun "tumha") figured that it might be
dative "you", as in "I should inform (to) you". So I wound up
with "If I should understand the truth, I should inform you."

In 8, I believe "ma.m" is singular, so "me" instead of "us".

Let me know your thoughts.

Thanks.

Charles
