So instead of: lo prenu cu klama lo zarci lo zdani lo dargu lo karce you can say: lo prekla cu klama lo zacyselkla lo zdaterkla lo dagvelkla lo karcyxelkla >> >> Why is beret - hat - garment artificial? >> > But they're all on the same level, no? >> As kinds?

One level contains the garment, next level down the hat, next level down the beret (and a fourth level I hadn't mentioned because it won't enter into a klesi relationship contains some particular individual beret.) So "klesi" relates two things from different levels. mu'o mi'e xorxes --=20 You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "= lojban" group.
