It's something I see= =20 often (and usually do myself), but {do} is generally used with {.e'u} in=20 particular. My thought was that, because attitudinals beginning with "a"=20 and "e" (and some "i") show that the marked text is a hypothetical=20 assertion, not a real one, using {do} would be the correct thing for the=20 hypothetical world (in which la'e {do} is actually doing what is said in=20 the sentence). .iepei {do} may be a hypothetical one as well as a real one, depending on the=20 context. For example, ganai do da'i morsi ginai mi jbena=20 The whole sentence may be true even if {do na morsi}. {ko} and {do} are defined as follows: ko sumka'i le tersku noi le cusku cu minde ja cpedu le nu ke'a gasnu la'e= =20 le selsku do sumka'i le tersku The difference is only the part after {noi}, which adds the speaker's=20 attitude of {minde ja cpedu}.

On the other hand, "{do} with {.e'u}" means only "{do} with the=20 speaker's attitude of {stidi}", which is clearly different from the meaning= =20 of "{ko} with {.e'u}".

My thought was that, because attitudinals beginning with "a" and "e"= (and some "i") show that the marked text is a hypothetical assertion, not = a real one, using {do} would be the correct thing for the hypothetical worl= d (in which la'e {do} is actually doing what is said in the sentence). .iep= ei



{do} may be a hypothetical one as well as a real one, dep= ending on the context. For example,
ganai do da'i morsi ginai mi jbena <= br>The whole sentence may be true even if {do na morsi}.

{ko} and {d= o} are defined as follows:
ko sumka'i le tersku noi le cusku cu minde ja= cpedu le nu ke'a gasnu la'e le selsku
do sumka'i le tersku

The d= ifference is only the part after {noi}, which adds the speaker's attitude o= f {minde ja cpedu}.

"{ko} with {.e'o}" means therefore "{do} with th= e speaker's attitudes {minde ja cpedu} and {.e'o}". Because {.e'o} is an at= titudinal of {cpedu}, it means "{do} with the speaker's attitude of {minde = ja cpedu je cpedu}", which is equal to "{do} with the speaker's attitude of= {cpedu}".
"{do} with {.e'o}" also means "{do} with the speaker's attitu= de of {cpedu}".
"{ko} with {.e'o}" and "{do} with {.e'o}" have therefor= e the same meaning.

{.e'u} is an attitudinal of {stidi}. "{ko} with = {.e'u}" means, with the same procedure, "{do} with the speaker's attitudes = of {minde ja cpedu je stidi}". On the other hand, "{do} with {.e'u}" means = only "{do} with the speaker's attitude of {stidi}", which is clearly differ= ent from the meaning of "{ko} with {.e'u}". Both are acceptable, and the sp= eaker needs to select one of them depending on one's attitude.

In my= opinion, however, the definition of {ko} should include also the attitudes= of {curmi}, {pacna}, {stidi}, {djica}, {bilga}, because imperative express= ions in natural languages include them. If so, "{ko} with {.e'u}" and "{do}= with {.e'u}" would have the same meaning.
