Let me if I got this right:

The first three possiblities use "su'o mu'ei" as sumti tcita for "ko'a" but
I don't understand the structure of the last three. I thought tense cmavo
can only be moved through the sentence when they are followed by "ku".

So I would translate "ro mu'ei ko'e broda" as "If ko'e than certainly the
obvious thing broda."

Or did I get something wrong.
