So, {lo za'u cusku be dei }. {no'u} just sounds wrong;it is not an identity, merely a predication, probably {poi}. For the rest it is over specification in that these other things may or may not be included. {lo} does it's usual selection job in context. In particular, lo na'e cusku are not to be included, by the nature of the gadri.

Where is {dei} in {lo za'u cusku}. Does "we" include only those who speak or those to whom something is spoken? No.
"we" is either {mi no'u za'umei} or {mi jo'u da poi prenu gi'e na'e cusku be dei gi'e na'e te cusku be dei}

Do you think you can give a precise definition of {zo'oi we} in Lojban?
