".a bu", "denpa bu", "pavyseljirna bu", "bi bu bu bu" etc. are *not*
members of BY (and they are not all compound cmavo). They are
constructs that behave almost as if they were in BY, but they are not
in BY.

Similarly "broda zei brode", "da zei de", ".a zei .e zei .i zei .o zei
.u", etc are not members of BRIVLA, although they behave almost as if
they were.

Similarly "zo ,a", "zo .djan.", "zo zo" are not members of KOhA,
although they behave almost as if they were. (And the same can be said
of the ZOI and LOhU constructs.)
