| Nov 13, 2016 at 3:13 | comment | added | Andrew Woods | The -u form without subject is usually a command directed to vi but not always; e.g. you can say Pluvu! without believing in a rain god. Estu! on its own means "Let it be so!" | |
| Nov 12, 2016 at 22:26 | comment | added | Jiri Lebl | I guess in "estu lumo", the lumo becomes the subject. But i was thinking about how to use estu without a subject at all. As far as i understand, without a subject a verb in the -u form assumes you as the subject and is a command. | |
