Example 11.4 in Chapter 20 implicitly shows it by using a single-term termset:

11.4)    mi pe'e ja do ce'e le zarci cu klama le briju
    I [joint] or you to-the market [plus] go to/from-the office.

It wouldn't be hard to tweak the grammar to accept "fi ja fo". I don't
know why it wasn't done given that tags, which are similar in many
respects to FAs, can be connected with jeks.
