jamna jam (*to* war)
x1 (person/mass) wars against x2 over territory/matter x3; 
x1 is at war with x2

banli bal ba'i (great, 'grand')
x1 is great/grand in property x2 (ka) by standard x3

x1 cu banli le ka jamna -> balkamjamna -> baljamna -> "grand in warring" ("gloriously warring")
(mi na nelci le du'u go'i)
lei baljamna: "the heroes (I have in mind!)"
