I don't feel comfortable with using an attitudinal alone for this. For instance, what is the meaning of
.e'o do pilno le skami or
.au do pilno le skami ? It sounds to me like the claim that "you use the computer" (factually) plus an added implication of some (possibly unspecified) request or desire. If I am mistaken, what do we need
ko for? Is the only the save the one
slaka of the attitudinal? The
doi option is logical, however it creates a strange sort of self-reference. It means that from now on,
do refers to
mi'o =
mi +
do ! Is there a way to "reset"
do so it refers to the "default" listener once again? Perhaps if I say just
doi ?
