matrix:... and you can merge estas finenda to finendas just as with any other esti+adjective construction. Nothing wrong with Miland's sentence.
Miland:Mia(j) hejmtasko(j) finendas ĉi-tage.“-end” is used to compose participles, so it must be used in passive voice.
It could be:
[LISTO]
in passive voice “Mia hejmtaskaro estas finenda antaŭ morgaŭ.”
in active voice “Hejmtaskaron mi devas fini antaŭ morgaŭ.”[/list]

erinja:And Fraqtive is an experienced speaker, therefore we should encourage him to speak in the weirdest possible way that is still technically correct, just to prove a point?I don't agree that it is weird. It is instructive and good for people to learn of the flexibility of Esperanto to express things in different ways, even if they don't use all of them.
