In my opinion yes, but as John said this is not completely settled.

In my opinion no, but again this is still not clear.

Everybody agrees about the meaning of:

        ro da poi prenu cu prami da
        Every x which is a person loves themself.

But I'm not sure if everybody agrees with this:

        ro lo prenu goi ko'a cu prami ko'a
        Every person loves all persons.

It would be interesting to know what {no prenu goi ko'a} means, since it
does not seem to assign any referent to "ko'a".
