Question 226:
You are a linguist specializing in Rapa Nui. You are given a sentence along with its morpheme breakdown, gloss, and translation. Words are separated by spaces, and morphemes are separated by hyphens. However, a word and its gloss are missing and represented by an underscore. Based on your understanding, please choose the most appropriate option. 
Sentence (with missing item): ...\ꞌai au ___ u\ꞌi mai era mai ruŋa ki a koe.
Gloss (with missing item): ~~~there 1SG ___ look hither DIST from above to PROP 2SG
The English translation of this sentence is:‘(If I were that bird,) I would look at you from above.’
