I don't think so. I'm not too sure how {fau} is supposed to work. If we assume that {mi klama le zarci fau ko'a} means that {ko'a nu mi klama le zarci}, then {le nu mi klama le zarci} would be equivalent to {le jaifau klama be le zarci bei fai mi}. What you have would be a raised version of that, and you couldn't use it in a place where you would use a {le nu ...}. co'o mi'e xorxes
