You and your significant other must leave early for whatever reason. You want to look at him/her and say "mi'o klama" so that all listening know that you mean just yourself and your partner. But at the same time, you want it to come across as an imperative "ko klama".How would you handle this? mi'oko? Can you make personal sumka'i other than "do" imperative? (eg: do'oko, ma'ako etc?)Or would you just decide that it's foolish to take the imperative with your significant other and instead say ".e'o mi'o klama"?.i'o ki'e rodomu'o mi'e neit
