You can have ambiguity in all of these. Incidentally, syntax is itself connected to lexical matters and morphology, and these are connected to phonology (some theories mix them in a whole), so you could also find amibguities in those. The example you gave is anaphoric ambiguity. Sure Lojban has anaphoric ambiguity, its logical-predicate-structure allows it. Yet I tend to think a *lexical* ambiguity would be more rarely produced, -- if ever. --esc -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "lojban" group.
