In person: students say the meaning before you flip the card. Virtual: students type the answer in chat. Note: aua le attaches directly to a word ("don't [be] X"); aua 'e te and aua ne'i introduce a full clause with an explicit subject. The 7 "aua 'e te"/"aua ne'i" cards come from one source (the Samoan Ten Commandments translation) rather than several independent ones -- worth a second look before treating them as fully settled.
