The vo'i is easable inferrable from context though. (In this case, repeating do would be shorter, too. But with longer sumti, it's a different story)

Here is an example if a sentence in Pandunia language.
mi peti ti tshau ta. =3D I ask you to say hello to him.=A0
parsing: [I ask you greet=A0he/she/it]

So the second "sumti" ti in mi peti ti=A0becomes the first "sumti" of the next construction "ti tshau= ta".

I wonder whether it's possible to do so in Lojban. May {be} or {.i ri} can do the trick
