Shouldn't the second one use "lu'e la'e lu ... li'u"? {lu'e} should take a proposition, not a text, I think. A text is not a symbol for another text. Also, the difference might be made more clear if you don't use {mi} as the subject: la djorden cusku le se du'u la camgusmis ra tavla Jordan said that Robin talked to him. la djorden cusku lu do mi tavla li'u Jordan said "You talked to me". la djorden cusku lu'e la'e lu la camgusmis la djorden tavla Jordan said words with the meaning of "Robin talked to Jordan". mu'o mi'e xorxes _________________________________________________________________ STOP MORE SPAM with the new MSN 8 and get 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?page=features/junkmail
