Let's assume that
xau =3D BAI tag denoting agent or refe= rence frame.
.iei =3D BAI tag denoting object.
.uai =3D= BAI tag denoting property of the object.

Then we = can rephrase many gismu as
ko'a djuno lo du'u ko'e brode kei ko'e =3D xau mi djun= o .uai lo ka brode .iei ko'i
(the same for {morji} and compan= y)

ko'a kakne lo ka brode =3D xau [je .iei] mi= kakne .uai lo ka brode
ko'a te mukti lo nu brode =3D xau ko'a .iei ko'a .uai lo k= a brode kei te mukti=A0
(May be xau =3D gau or xau =3D ma'i)<= br>
These tags can replace FA (a separate set of SE is not needed= here if we use {jai}).

For {vecnu, dunda, cpacu} and {benji} we can use {be= 9;i} tags (if {benji} is about sending objects, not information) as the cor= e semantic prime for those gismu seems to be the same.
For sendin= g information another set of BAI might be needed.

= I've been saying {manci} and {melbi} to my babies *a lot*, and I
*st= ill* have trouble remembering that it's {do melbi mi} and {mi
manci do}. =A0GRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH.


This is not the problem. We can just use {selmanci} and forget abou= t {manci}.
{xabju =3D se zdani} is a better example showing redun= dancy.

The problem isn't redundancy, it's= consistency. =A0
Place structures should be as consistent as pos= sible.=A0
