Hello

Hi,

Three questions:
1) I found another word that I am not able to make a sense: "tesete". Here the context:
.i mi ba tesete cpedu lo prenu lenu klama gi'e cpacu le selponse be cy. li'u

which is translated as:
"I'll get someone to come by for his things."

Could someone explain this term?


1) {te se te} is three words. You probably know what {se} and {te} do individually. Here's what happens in the case of {te se te}:
broda =3D x1 broda x2 x3
te broda =3D x3 broda x2 x1
se te broda =3D x2 broda x3 x1
te se te broda =3D x1 broda x3 x2
In short: the x2 and x3 places are switched. This is always the case when you have SEi SEj SEi: The xi and xj places are exchanged



2) I've not been able to find the = rules that governs a) clustering cmavo, e.g. .ibabo, .iku'i, leza'= ;i, etc... b) omitting the initial period (e.g. i, ibabo, iku'i). Are these rules written somewhere or do they come from usage (I don't think so).

cmavo can always be clustered, but many prefer not to do this because it obscures the constructs, for example you thought tesete was one word. I personally discourage clustering for this reason.
The initial period can never be omitted before vowels (if they are p= honetically vowels. {ui} =3D [wi], so no dot is necessary).
=

.ui does require the initial pause, there are no exceptions to the= vowel initial is preceded by pause rule.
