Know this was posted a while back, but just noticed something that clicked in my head: since dropping -r verb infinitive creates the Present Tense, using "do" as an auxilary like in English wouldn't be needed in Mando'a. 
For example, "tion ru vaabi gar vaabi ti bic?" would best be rendered something as, "tion ru vaabi gar ti bic". Kinda like saying, "what didst thou with it?"
With there being just a simple Present Tense, as long as an Object was given in a sentence, one could write the sentence not ordinary to English's Subject-Verb-Object syntax and still make sense. "Tion ti bic ru vaabi gar?"/"What with it hast thou done?"

Anyway, these Lessons were an awesome find!

Not planning to right now, unfortunately. It takes me enough time to put the whole thing together as it is. That's maybe something I can try to put in later. The pronuncation guide is available in the dictionary. (I know - a pain to look up one word at a time.)
