{la munje nuncanja midju}. Which brings up the shoeicide bomber. He was 
definitely a cutci jbama prenu, not cutci ke jbama prenu (well actually he 
*was*, but most bombers wear shoes), but lo bampre are far more commonly 
talked about than lo cucyjbama. So should we say {cutci bampre}, {cucyjbama 
prenu}, or {cucybampre}?
