Xod's version of Evgeny:
If you choose, send mail to we who speak.

if      ro ba'oi tu'odu'u
you     do
choose  cuxna
that    tu'odu'u
mail    se mrilu cei bu'a
you     do
us      ma'a
who     poi
speak   tavla
do so   cu bu'a
IMPER   ko

-- There's no greater verbosity than in Xod's version, except what
verbosity Lojban makes mandatory.

I don't know Spanish, so I don't know whether "cuando" can mean "whenever"
and I don't know the mood and tense of "elija", but at any rate, Rob takes
it as "when" and renders it as "calenu", which Greg renders well as
"while".
