Welcome!

Posting in English is totally acceptable. This is the beginner's list
for a reason, after all.

According to jbovlaste, which is at http://jbovlaste.lojban.org/ :

nilji'a
n1 is a number of points / score / indication of an attempt to win a
competition won by j1 over opponent(s) j3 in competition j4, points
measured on scale n2
