The dots should go back in throughout. The Thais and Ancient Greeks may 
disagree, but I find a text without punctuation very hard to read.

As to word order, if you have two FA tags in one bridi to preserve word 
order, it's too much. One SE and one FA is okay, e.g. le selci'a cu se fanva 
fi le xelso (which means the same as {fanva le selci'a le xelso}, but the 
latter might look up, see someone, and assume you uttered an observative 
about the passing translator).
