Er, no; the grammar has no idea about what types of things different sumti are. You can put properties and concrete sumti in the same places in any selbri grammatically. What you're talking about is a sort of low level semantics that is beneath most other semantics, namely what sorts of things can do what, that is to say {ka'e} statements. mu'o mi'e latros > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "lojban" group. > To post to this group, send email to lojban@googlegroups.com. > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > lojban+unsubscribe@googlegroups.com. > For more options, visit this group at > http://groups.google.com/group/lojban?hl=3Den. > > --=20 You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "= lojban" group.

The Lojban grammar treats properties differently from non-abstract objects. We cannot conventionally say {lo bisli} and imply that it's {lo ka bisli}. If we decided that binxo2 be "an acquired property"= ; to
be attributed to binxo1, that would be a new definition with a
mandatory NU, and currently valid expressions like {lo djacu cu binxo
lo bisli} would no longer be grammatical.

Er, no; t= he grammar has no idea about what types of things different sumti are. You = can put properties and concrete sumti in the same places in any selbri gram= matically. What you're talking about is a sort of low level semantics t= hat is beneath most other semantics, namely what sorts of things can do wha= t, that is to say {ka'e} statements.
