If a cmevla is followed by a word beginning with a vowel, I omit one of the=
=20
denpa bu; which one is arbitrary. I omit the space only within a compound=
=20
cmene (e.g. "misisipis.rirx", "kot.divu=E1r") or cmavo cluster (e.g. "na.e"=
,=20
"te.u"). So I'd write "la .djan. uisai xruti .i mi mutce gleki".

Btw, it's "denpa bu", not "denpabu", which is a zi'evla. The proper brivla =
is=20
"depybu'i".
