most obvious is when <sumti> is a Linnaean name, in which case x2 is a
subtaxon thereof. For instance, "me la .eragrostis. la .tef." is synonymous
and equivalent to "pamsrasu la .tef." (an Ethiopian grain used to make a
bread called injera). It is true, though, that x2 of "me lo broda" does not
depend on x2 of "broda".
But what does "mi me lo klama be lo zarci be'o lo ckule" mean? "lo ckule" is

not in any place of "klama".
I don't think that really makes any kind of sense, but what it means, is:
I am-amongst-those-that-are something-which-goes-to-a-store in-aspect-a-school.
Since {lo ckule} is the x2 of me.
A, um, sensical example might be:
mi me lo klama be lo zarci be'o lonu ca cadzu
I am-amongst-those-that-are something-which-goes-to-a-store in-aspect-presently-walking-(there).
The best colloquial English translation I can think of is:
I am a store-goer, as I'm currently walking.
