Not sure how you got here from there.

I take {da} to be equivalent to {lo du} = {su'o da poi du}. So it
is not strange to wonder what {lo'e du} is, and how it could be
related to {zu'i} or {zi'o}

Is ka ce'u du the same as ka ce'u dunli?

No, it is different. {dunli} is a relationship between two
separate things. For example: {mi dunli le mi mensi le ka makau
mamta ce'u}: "I am equal to my sister in who our mother is".
This is of course not to say {mi du le mi mensi}.

> What would {mi sisku zi'o} mean?

To wander, perpetually desirous but unable to be satisfied.

Hmm... Why perpetually? That would require {ze'e}, I could
just say {mi ze'i sisku zi'o}.

And why unable to be satisfied? I could say something like:
{mi zi'o cirko gi'ebabo sisku gi'ebabo tolcri}: "I lost, then
I sought, then I found."
