For example, if I want to say "an American sells this > tome" do the sentences "lo merko ku vecnu ti mi" and "lo merko cu vecnu ti > mi" mean the same thing? They mean the same, as does "lo merko ku cu vecnu ti mi". "lo merko cu ku vecnu ti mi" is ungrammatical, and "lo merko vecnu ti mi" is grammatical, but a sentence fragment. Btw I thought you meant "lo merko cu vecnu lo vi paucku" when I had read just the English.
