I think on reflection that "go'i" in a tanru probably incorporates all
the sumti from the previous bridi in as linkargs, so
	.ije janli befa ma noi citri bloti bei pu bei le barda bisli
		be'o seldaspo
Thus repeating the question as well. .icaca'o na'e birti


ta'o there was a grammatical but certainly not intended extra "ci" in
your da'amoi sentence.
