sumti can be as complex as needed (including SE-conversions).
If you want to say "the big translated text", you need {se} in your compound 
sumti : {le barda se fanva} ({le barda fanva} would be "the big translator").
So {se} will never do the job of {cu}.

In other words, if {cu} is omitted here, {se tcika} would be considered as a
part of the first sumti.
