A "cu" is needed after the relative clause:

le ninmu poi se prami mi cu pu cliva ...

 

> .i .a'u pu lonu go'i ku mi ca gunka lonu cilre la lojban. .e cmaci

 

"loi cmaci", for it must be a sumti.

Yes.

Yes again. :)

 

> .i .ua mi ca jimpe .i ku'i mi stidi lonu seba'i zo .e cusku zo .a

 

mi gleki lo nu go'e

".e" means that the statement is true for either one of the

listed sumti. That is, in my opinion both {fe'o} and {mu'o}

would fit better than {fa'o}.

(I'm no native Lojban speaker, so how could I revise the

Ref. Grammar itself? :))

Yes, it is.

The use of {fe'o} isn't restricted to emails. It can also

mean the "The End" at the end of a text, for example.

You can also see lots of {mu'o}'s used in emails on

this list.

 

> Are both "MIxael" and "MIxa,el" identically pronounced and both allowed?

 

Yup.

 

mi'e darves

P.S.: {co'o} is usually not used for closing emails.
