I'm trying to translate this Bill Cosby quote: "Always end the name of your 
child with a vowel, so that when you yell the name will carry.".

I've got this far with it: {ko tercme lo panzi be do ko'a mu'i lo du'u 
tirna lo nu do kirxa ko'a}. The bit I'm missing is the {goi} phrase for 
that first {ko'a}.

One of my ideas is to have something like {lo se romoi be lo karsna}, but 
PAmoi2 is a set (obviously), so that sumti, in this context, would refer to 
a set of names (like first name, middle name and surname), the last of 
which is a single vowel. Clearly that's not what I want.

Is there any way to refer to the string made up from a set of characters? 
That would make the above sumti work. I also thought of a way to make it 
work with the opposite operation (getting the characters from a given 
string), using something beginning with {da poi lo karsna cu romoi lo broda 
be ke'a}. I'm not saying that it would be a selbri like that; I just wanted 
the surrounding structure to be obvious and grammatical.
