  You have a grammatical problem here.  "ja'e", like all BAI, must be
followed by a single sumti.  Therefore you need to "wrap up" the part
after it into one sumti by sticking a "lo nu" in front:

o'acai mi cilre ja'e lo nu mi na'e mulno snada

  This says, "<Extreme pride> I'm learning, therefore I'm not
completely successful".
