( This is another thing that has changed, see:

".erve" is just another word that is defined in the dictionary:

Well, "Beloved" (with a capital B) is a possible translation, or 
Amando/Amanda, etc, but I wouldn't actually translate my name to any of 
those. The meaning of "selpa'i" is "beloved", but I'm just selpa'i, even 
in English.

That reminds me. When you said "mi'e fagri cipni" you said "I am a fire 
bird". You need to use "la" to refer to something as a name.

mi'e la selpa'i mu'o
