Let's see. Never imagine yourself not to be otherwise Never imagine that you are not otherwise than what it might appear to others that what you were or might have been was not otherwise than what you had been would have appeared to them to be otherwise. The last line does not fit in anywhere grammatically. ko ze'e na se xanri ledu'u do na drata le cumki se simlu fi le drata le du'u le fatci ja cumki se dunli be do na drata le pu se dunli be do le simlu be ra be'o drata The last line is supposed to be x3 of xanri which doesn't have an x3. So I'll run it through jbofi'e and see if I need to close anything. ko ze'e na se xanri ledu'u do na drata le cumki se simlu be fi le drata bei fe le du'u le fatci ja cumki se dunli be do na drata le pu se dunli be do kei kei le simlu be ra be'o drata I *think* that's right, but with a sentence this complex, it's hard to tell. phma
