Maybe I misunderstood you. How would you use {jezvelji'i}
to translate "you have no evidence for that"?

> How could I use jei for that? And, I never use indirect questions.

Some people use {jei} instead of {du'u xukau}. In fact, this
is the only usage {jei} has seen as far as I can tell.

Avoiding indirect questions is fine, as long as you don't fall
in the trap of saying {mi djuno le se zvati be do} to mean
"I know where you are" ({mi djuno le du'u do zvati makau}).
How would you say that?
