klama li pa li s= u'o

If not, what do you all think would be a good lojban transla= tion?

Also, I found the following in "lo nu binxo" and am = a little confused....

"ni'o lu xu do jimpe su'o valsi sei lo krati fo lo rirni c= u te preti"

the place structure of "te preti" would b= e "questioner x1 about subject x2 asks/queries the question x3 (quoted= text) to audience x4"

but filling in those places doesn't seem to make much sense since i= n the quote "lu xu do jimpe su'o valsi" would seem to fill in= the x1 place.=A0 Or am I misunderstanding how "sei" works?
