I'm editing my message from the day the power went out into an article for 
nuzban, and I wrote this sentence:

{.ibo so'i py. na se bangu le glico gi'e seri'a na jimpe fi le midnoi tcita 
be le jeltci}

jbofi'e complained about "Missing selbri before GIhA". I tried {vau} and a 
few other things and found that the following works:

{.ibo so'i ra na se bangu le glico gi'e seri'a na jimpe fi le midnoi tcita be 
le jeltci}

Why?
