"le mamta cu junta li ro" is nonsense. It means that the number all (infinity 
is ci'i; ro means however many of some things there are, that is all of them) 
is an object whose weight is the mother. "le mamta cu se junta li ro" is 
better, but lo se junta is not a number but a force. mi se junta lo niutni be 
li muvono.

I thought "That's sacki, right? Sackycmu." But it's a metathesis minimal 
pair. "sacki" is "match"; "sakci" is "suck".
