{pi'i} is the operator, {mo'e da} and {mo'e da} are the
operands. I'm not sure why this would put things in the wrong
category. But I wouldn't have the category 'operand' distinct
from the category 'sumti' to start with.

{ro xy} is like {pano}.

>But {ro ko'a} is OK, as is {ro ri}.

Those are {ro[boi] ko'a} and {ro[boi] ri}. The terminator
is elidable in these cases, but not in the case of {xy}.

>Apparently letterals are not pronouns in

It is letteral strings, not just letterals, that are pronouns,
though the most commonly used are the single-letteral strings.
These strings have to be separated from one another and
from quantifiers with the termiantor {boi}.
