Comments? {caca'o mi} means something like "during me". {caca'o} will act as a tag for the following sumti when not directly in front of the selbri, so you probably want {caca'oku mi cilre} or {mi caca'o cilre}. Also {le mu'e mi caca'o cilre} does not mean "at a point in my learning", but "my learning" taken as a point event. I don't know how much you want to emphasize that it is a stage of the learning that you want to refer to. I suppose {le ca sepu'u mi caca'o cilre} refers to the current stage of your learning. >.i mi cpedu le nu ko tavla mi le ka do >jinvi ma le si'o le xamgu cu me la linuks logflac. {ma} should be {makau}, unless you mean "what is it that I am asking you to tell me that you think?", but that is probably not what you ask for. Also, {ko} is starnge there, because that means you are saying "make it so that I ask you to tell me ...". {ko} is for direct imperatives. {ma} is for direct questions. Embedded in subclauses they usually don't work well. co'o mi'e xorxes _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.
