2015-07-03 5:53 GMT+03:00 Timothy Lawrence <timothy.= lawrence@connect.qut.edu.au>:

Are these translations correct (in the context of describing the difficu= lty of a task)?


easy =3D frili

medium =3D cnano

difficult =3D nandu

it's a scale. {= no'e frili} or {no'e nandu} would mean "medium in difficulty&q= uot;.
{cnano} means "to be normal, average" not necessa= rily in difficulty but you can also say
{cnano lo ka nandu} -= "normal in its difficulty" or {cnano lo ka frili} - "normal= in its easiness", not exactly what "medium" means.



In jbovlaste,=C2=A0"medium" also didn't have the definition I ho= ped for. Eventually I tried "average" and I think "cnano" is what I was looking for, so perhaps it could als= o be linked to the English word "medium".


Is scalar modification preferred?=

i'd say so.
=C2=A0

Thanks
