{pamoi} is a selbri, and so is {pu fanva}. You can't have
two separate selbri for the same bridi. You can use
{pamai} instead of {pamoi} there.

That one should be:

 le jai vi ca kavbu be loi ratcu (bei fai le mlatu) cu foldi

I don't think so. {jai vi} works more or less like {se},
it can't be followed by {be} or by a sumti.

{jai vi kavbu} is a selbri with the same places of
{kavbu}, except that the first place is replaced by a
location and the usual x1 place is now in the fai-place.
