Try any gismu with a place that can take a 'generic type', for
example x2 of nelci.
There is all the difference between
1. mi nelci lenu mi klama
2. mi nelci ledu'u mi klama
3. mi nelci leka mi klama
4. mi nelci leni mi klama
and others. (The first two are a bit similar, but the third and fourth
are different than them all).
BTW, I would translate them as:
1. I like walking
2. I like the fact that I am walking
3. I like my walkingness
4. I like the amount of my walkingness
or something of the sort.
