Re: [lojban-beginners] Re: xorlo and the sumti gerku



pi re loi mu gerku :
Quantity 0.2 of a part of one of groups that consists of dogs that are five
(It is one dog.)

Why does this not also mean an arbitrary group of parts of the group of five dogs, such as all their heads or legs?

I’ve yet to find a good systematic treatment of xorlo despite searching, so I am asking someone to do the obvious: take the sumti “gerku” and apply every possible xorlo to it, followed by a brief English translation and explanation.


I'm sorry that you might have considered my commentary as a bad systematic treatment of xorlo.
https://mw.lojban.org/papri/gadri:_an_unofficial_commentary_from_a_logical_point_of_view

Even though it is bad, it includes a systematic table of meaning of {lo} with numbers in Section 3.2.1. By applying M=2, N=5 and broda={gerku}, we obtain the following examples:

re lo mu gerku :
two (which are dogs distributively) of dogs that are five

re loi mu gerku :
two (which are dogs distributively) of groups that consists of dogs that are five

re lo'i mu gerku :
two (which are dogs distributively) of sets that consists of dogs that are five

pi re lo mu gerku :
Quantity 0.2 of a part of one of dogs that are five
(It is not a dog but a part of a dog.)

pi re loi mu gerku :
Quantity 0.2 of a part of one of groups that consists of dogs that are five
(It is one dog.)

pi re lo'i mu gerku :
Quantity 0.2 of a part (subset) of one of sets that consists of dogs that are five
(It is a set of one dog.)
