minus-squareShadow Glider@piefed.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·2 days agobtw you don’t use e after tawa if you have it mean “to” (which seems to be what you planned based on the meanings mi wile musi tawa sina - I want to be fun to you mi wile musi tawa e sina - I want to make you movement-fun Though I think it’s more likely you wanted to say something that would be better written as “mi wile e mi en sina li musi”)
