I use {ji'asai} for "even". "Even if" is more complicated because
"if" is complicated. I think I'd say:

   mi ba retsku va'o ji'asai lo nu do na jundi

> <viric> How would you translate "Exercice", from a textbook?

Maybe {cligu'a} or {crebi'ogu'a} for "x1 does exercise x2 ...".
Probably {selgu'a} with context is enough for "exercise". Maybe
{cilre selgu'a}.

{datni benji} information transfer? {dardatnybe'iske}?

"da" stands for anything, yes, including abstractions.

{sera'a} is the more general BAI for this.

You need {pe tedu'o}, or {pe sera'a}. Otherwise you have two unconnected
terms.

{be le dirce} or {pe le dirce}, for the same reason.

> <viric> Mmmm or not. Better "leka se dirce".

Maybe {lo nu dirce}.
