For me an outer PA immediately suggests a non-singleton domain, which "lo pa" explicitly contradicts, so getting "pa ransedyta'u cu se dasni ro faspre" and "ro faspre cu dasni lo pa ransedyta'u" to give me the same picture takes some effort. If the question is "can you imagine a domain where both of these sentences are true?", then yes, I can imagine such a domain. But is that the domain that each of the sentences calls for on its own? No, it's not. > Of > course, if you stuck {na ku} in front, they'd become nonequivalent again, > because that would trigger the scope-sensitivity of PA. In the domain in which both are true, sticking a "na ku" in front would make them both false, so why would they become nonequivalent? mu'o mi'e xorxes --=20 You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "= lojban" group.
