Where do we do our reviews? I'm not too happy with this example:

.i.ienai mi na go'i
"[Disagreement] I will not do that."

"I will not do that" sounds like "I don't intend to do that", i.e. a
refusal to do something someone else has asked them to do. Without
context it's impossible to tell, it might actually mean that the
speaker truly is disagreeing with something said about them rather
than refusing to do something asked of them, in which case "ie nai"
would be appropraite, but without context the English doesn't really
suggest that.

Then there is the usual problem, does "ienai broda" mean that the
speaker disagrees about "broda" being true, or do they disagree about
the preceding statement being true, and offer "broda" to oppose it? I
think it should be disagreement about broda, since the other should be
"ienai .i broda", but I'm sure someone else will want to say that the
speaker is actually asserting "broda".

If we want to avoid the whole discussion, I suggest changing to
something like, for example:

  ie nai .i ta ba'e na blanu
  "No, that's NOT blue."

mu'o mi'e xorxes
