I make errors with {ce'u}, because I keep forgetting which NU are
supposed to take them and which aren't. Intuitively, I want to be
able to use {ce'u} specify the role that a {kakne} has the innate
capability of playing in a {se kakne}, and unthinkingly I reach for
{ce'u}. I think the meaning is clear enough, though I don't really
know if it is allowed by the rules. I dare say it should be.

Thanks for the help, but it doesn't seem worth bothering anyone over.
