Leaving out spaces around brivla is "against the rules." Cool things can 
happen when you do it anyway:

{la .xal. viskami} 
= Hal is a nearby/this computer. 
= Hal sees me. 

{tumlatu} 
= That yonder is a cat. 
= The land is there yonder. 

{mi mabruna} 
= I'm not a mammal. 
= Whose brother am I? 

{mi sidju vofliba} 
= I help four failures. 
= I will helpfully fly it. 

{pano rectuca ma klama ti} 
= Where do the 102 teachers go? 
= When do the 10 meats come? 

{mosralo prami} 
= In what kind of Australian way do they love? 
= The lover rubs it. 

Finding the "ambiguous strings" is the boring part. Look for gismu where 
the initial CCV matches the final CVV and put them together to make 
CVCCVCV. Or concatenate (1) a gismu that ends in a CCV that is also a rafsi 
and either (2a) a rafsi that is also a cmavo, or (2b) any lujvo. (I have 
lists of these if you want.) Fitting the ambiguous strings into a sentence 
so that it works both ways is the puzzle part. 

Can you think of some nice ones?
