[[mi'e ((And))]

Superseded by ''((poi'i))''.

Speculatively proposed in [http://groups.yahoo.com/group/lojban/message/9301], repeated here:
----
Recent distinct threads have established

(a) that {ka} is redundant, since {du'u} can serve all the
functions of current {ka}

(b) that there is a need to be able to define reflexive
selbri that can function as sumti tails, analgously to
{da noi ke'a ke'a lumci} = "something that *self-washes*".

I first propose a NU, {kai'i}, meaning "ckaji (be le ka)".

Then

    da noi ke'a ke'a lumci

  = lo kai'i ce'u ce'u lumci

  = lo ckaji be tu'o du'u ce'u ce'u lumci

And more generally:

    lo broda
  = da noi ke'a broda
  = lo kai'i ce'u broda
  = lo ckaji be tu'o du'u ce'u broda

    da noi mi djuno tu'o du'u ke'a broda
  = lo kai'i mi djuno tu'o du'u ce'u broda
  = lo ckaji be tu'o du'u mi djuno tu'o du'u ce'u broda

I secondly propose that {ka} could be redefined as equivalent to
{kai'i}.
