I found {malkemcombau} in jbovlaste and got stumped figuring out what its 
place structure should be. I've thought of using {co'e} for making the 
equivalent of denominal verbs, e.g. {ko remco'e le tcana} "man the station", 
and have made up {comdaidza} "thingamajig" (along with {rodbo'e} and a couple 
of others). But what's {combau}?

Then there's {jomcmi}. That is glossed as "set union" but the place structure 
has a stray "j" and doesn't make sense. Since {jo'e} has no place structure 
and there's nothing preceding it, I'm stumped.

Then there's {bu} - why that has a rafsi I don't know. {le borbu'i javjve cu 
lemroito'e zorzo'i}
