However, the intended meaning was "I will present for the chancellor a

Then, based on the "romulan hunter-killer probe" Ca'Non, the thought

I will present for the chancellor a process in order to train and in
order to thin

<pre class="moz-quote-pre" wrap="">In this construction, how does one differentiate between something with two purposes versus a purpose that is serving another one? Or does one just rely on context?
Because it could be a process for training that also will make him thin (but the training is it’s own purpose and lacks a direct causal link to the thinning), or it could be a process that trains him with the explicit purpose that the training makes him thin.</pre>

<p>The <b>'ej</b> gives the game away. It has to connect two verbal
clauses of the same type, which means they can't be modifying each
other. The only possible conjunction here is between the <b>qeqmeH</b>
and the <b>langmeH,</b> so there's no chance that <b>qeqmeH</b>
is modifying <b>langmeH.</b></p>
<p>I wouldn't want to construct a sentence where one purpose clause
modifies another purpose clause. Start nesting clauses too deep
and they become hard to understand.<br>
