Check out http://www.eskimo.com/~ram/lexical_semantics.html and
http://www.eskimo.com/~ram/syntax.html and search for the string
"embed".  The full expression is "embedded clause".

'I want to stay put.'  The translator ignores the rest "kutezugi
kuntesye facula kintomay kutehi" because "kutezugi" is a noun, and a
noun cannot start a sentence.  By the way, "kutehi" is not a valid
anaphor.  You should use "kuhi".
