This should be "fe to dom". With "Fa to dom", the "fa" is redundant and
"go" becomes x2.

Yes, ga sounds good to me.

If we want at least three words for quantified "something", and another
word for the default "something" which can usually be left out, what
should they be? For the quantified ones, would ba/ca/da work, or would
the similarity to be/ce/de imply (wrongly) that each one belongs in a
particular place?

Actually, it could be useful to have four quantified "something" words,
making it easier to define Ceqli words in Ceqli. A vowel series like
bja/bje/bjo/bju?

And finally, a shout out to the lurkers. Hopefully I haven't scared them
off, or something. Feel free to suggest stuff.
