A good part of the native English usage probably escapes me, but why can't ZAhO Do the job?

{mi pu pu'o} or {mi pu co'a}?

Or is it a problem that, in English, you could continue "... but then I didn't"?

I wanted to express the meaning "I intended to..." 

But Robin said that {zu'edji} is fine for expressing "intention".

(I know doi la gleki arxokuna do'u you didn't ask me.)
