=A0 =A0Well, a selbri is just the description of relations= hip between one or more things (sumti (arguments)). =A0It often ROUGHLY cor= responds to a verb in natural languages. =A0Just =A0like in English "P= ierre is a good friend of Annie" or "I will go to the mall",= "is a good friend of" or "will go to" describes the re= lationships between Pierre and Annie or me and the mall in more than one wo= rd, lojban does the same. =A0"la pier. cu pendo la anis." is &quo= t;Pierre is a friend of Annie" =A0And "la pier cu=A0
mutce pendo la anis" would be "Pierre is a good friend of Annie&q= uot;. =A0The selbri in the first is "pendo", and in the second &q= uot;mutce pendo" =A0"I go to the mall" is "mi klama lo = zarci" while "I will go to the mall" is "mi ba klama lo= zarci" The selbri in the first is "klama", in the second &q= uot;ba klama".
