Whoa. There is a difference between knowing that something is to be done and so doing it and doing it intentionally. Doing it intentionally only requires awareness that you are doing it and consciousness that you are not compelled in doing it (in some very loose sense of "compelled"). The correspondent to the {morji le nu} suggested would be the first: knowing something is to be done and doing it for that reason (perhaps among others), a much narrower notion. And that is almost (but not quite) what English "know to" means: knows what is proper in a situation and does it.

That seems to be right (aside from the bit moving from intentions to intentional), and {mojyzu'e} a better word for it: the "what remembered" place of {morji} supplying the purpose place of {zukte}. I suppose a similar version could be made for {djuno}.
