The usual way to express this in Lojban is: mi nelci ro finpe poi [ke'a] na .angila I like every fish which [it] not eel "I like every fish except for eels." When you have referents that are the exception, then {po'u nai} can be used to save space: mi nelci ro finpe po'u nai ti "I like every fish except for this one." ({po'u nai} is short for {poi ke'a na du})Both jbofi'e and camxes (at http://camxes.lojban.org) reject "po'unai". Is there a newer version that accepts it?
The "beta" and "experimental" options at http://lojban.github.io/ilmentufa/camxes.html accept it.
It is also accepted by zantufa (http://guskant.github.io/gerna_cipra/zantufa-1.html).
Allowing NAI after any word is a well-known proposal (see https://mw.lojban.org/papri/move_NAI_to_CAI). This simplification is in common use.
