So, if you don't specify the distance, you say

mi klama gy. pu lenu xabju by.

and, if you want to specify the distance, you say

mi klama gy. co'a ny. poi prulamji lenu xabju by.

Are you aware that just that little difference made you throw away all
of the nifty imaginary journeys devices (not counting the aspectuals
(?))? Why bother with PU at all, if you can do it with
purci/balvi/cabna? Why bother with ZEhA, if you can do it with NAhE
clani temci? Why have mo'i FAhA? There is always muvdu be lo
bersa/trixe...

co'o mi'e. goran.
