That actually means, "I see Man Whose Horse Is Feared". (It

Is the following correct Lojban to
express the name's real meaning?

mi viska la poi le ke'a xirma (ku) se terpa lo nanmu



No. It has to be something more like, "la sezyxirma terpa nanmu".
Or, if you want to use a relative clause (not always a good idea):
"la nanmu po'u le terpa be leri xirma".
