ja'arcu'a (elect; to choose in election)
c1 elects c2=j1 (candidate) from alternatives c3.

* There is "gubycu'a" for "vote".

I'm not sure there is a good lujvo option for "vote" and related concepts. Certainly, not all elections are for jatnas and not all jatna-choosings are elections. I had previously encountered this problem when trying to translate the word "candidate", and had decided that only a fu'ivla would handle it. I don't remember the specifics of what I came up with, though.


selgu'e (citizen; member of a state)
g2 is a citizen, a legally recognized member of g1 (country/state) in
g3 (land/territory).

I don't think there's anything in the definition of "gugde" which specifies legal recognition.

Cheers,

Nat Krause
