I think, here, function of {na} is very simple. Let's suppose, the 
"previous" sentence is {.i ta mlatu xu}. Then
{go'i} = {ta mlatu} = "that's true"
{na go'i} = {ta na mlatu} = {na ku ta mlatu} = "that's false"

But that's not the point. More important is that {ta mlatu xu} does not 
contain a claim. The questioner usually doesn't even know whether that is a 
cat or not. Now does {do jinvi lo du'u ta mlatu xu ku ta} contain a claim? 
Does it say that you indeed have some opinion about that object?
