It should be i ro da voi nanmu ku'o pa de poi tanxe zi'e goi ko'a zo'u: da bevri de The {ku'o} is needed so that {pa de} doesn't fall in the x2 of nanmu, and it has to be {ro da} and not {ci da}. The {ci} is implicit in the {voi}, it can't replace the {ro} because it would change the meaning. Jorge
