Let us share our knowledge.
.i .au mi'o simxu dunda lo selju'o pe mi'o


.i .au mi'o simxu lo ka jungau

 

We could mutually benefit one another (hard to translate from Swedish "Vi kan ha mycket glädje av varandra")
.i .au mi'o ba simxu rinka lo so'i xamgu


.i .au mi'o simxu lo ka xamgu

 

Let us understand eachother.
.i .e'o .au mi'o simxu tersmu



.i .e'o .au mi'o simxu lo ka slabu

 

We are not so different, you and me.
.i na'e frica fa do fe mi



.i frica fa do fe mi fi so'u po'o da


 

This place where you are you, I am I and we are we.
.i le stuzi bu'u ku noi do backi do zi'e noi mi backi mi zi'e mi'o backi mi'o




What's this {backi}? :o I don't see the difference with {mulno}?

I'm afraid you might have to explain what you mean by this? Is being identical with yourself a metaphor here, does it just mean being comfortable? I don't mean to dissect the metaphor to death, just it's hard to translate metaphors into Lojban generally of course. :)
