I disagree that this is “puri Ron Clark Glosa”

I don’t find it in the publications

Enlgish uses the verb “to be” for the passive construction as in this example from “18 Steps to Fluency”

~Ante pedi-kruci es ge-parka u moto cikla.~

All the ~gene~ uses in “18 Steps” are without the “ge-“ such as

~U piski pa gene kuko.~ ~Poli persona nu gene repara per alo-medika.~
