  It seems to me that you are trying to use "stali"  in a sense of "to continue to do something".  That's not what it means.  It means to remain with or at someplace ("he remained home", "The smell of grapes linger on his hands") You are probably more interested in the tense "ca'o" or the gismu "ranji".

I meant stodi.


  Okay.  

  Next one:  i ku'i lo noltruni'u ba lo nu citka lo fepri .e lo livga vu'o noi ny krici fi ke'a fe lo du'u pagbu la snime blabi cu jinvi lo du'u di'a ku pa moi lo melbi gi'e mlerai 

  Absolutely nothing wrong here, and it's purely a stylistic choice, but just wondering why you didn't use the simpler "....ny krici lo du'u [ke'a] pagbu la snime blabi...", which would have accomplished the same thing, without having to bring in the "fi ke'a", which then necessitated you also adding in the word "fe".
