Questions about interaction with other Magic Words __Q__: I accidentally closed a lo'u quote with a le'u, but I had more ungrammatical utterance to speak. How do I erase le'u? __A__: Once you close a lo'u quote with le'u, the construct becomes a pseudo-word. Saying si after le'u will erase the the entire lo'u ... le'u quote. You can say {joi lo'u ... le'u} to append information to a lo'u utterance, or you can restate your entire utterance as a new lo'u quote.. __Q__: seriously zei? __A__: I'm fixing it. !!
