Actually, it's "lu lu broda vau li'u cu brode vau li'u"
What CU does is separate the selbri of a bridi from the leading terms
of that bridi. CU cannot be used in front of a selbri that has no
leading terms.
The grammar of CU is extremely simple:
sentence <- (terms CU?)? bridi-tail
That is the ONLY context in which it can be used. No sentence, no CU.
(In "zo cu", "cu bu", and other magic word stuf it is not really being
used as such.)
