I would have understood better if you had suggested {manci}. My
reasoning to provide that hint is that when one says {u'e} it is
surprised. So {lo nu selspaji} would be "being surprised". Also {lo nu
manci} would be "being in awe" or "wondering", which could work. Just
{manci} seems somewhat less "surprising" than {spaji} in the {u'e}
sense.

My fault, it should be {mi se cmene}.

Isn't a {plise} round? I feared that the reference to being healthy
would have been more controversial (I now that many languages have a
proverb about apples and doctors, but not all!).

I missed the [reveals] in the gismu defiition of {jarco}. I thuoght it
meant more "detects".
> I expect for "gasygau" is "ko'a gasnu lo nu ko'e ganse ko'i ko'o ko'u"
I see your point but I'm not 100% sure {gau} is still tricky to me
sometimes. Anyway, I'll change it.
I'll posted the new one here:

> mu'o mi'e xorxes
While I'm at that. I never understood why you don't say {mi'e xorxes
mu'o} since, in my mind, nothing should follow {mu'o}.
