Does lojban have a concept of namespaces? Like everything said by the speak= er is assumed to be in their namespace, but they could specify otherwise. F= or example, i could talk about "free culture" and mean something = different than what larry lessig would mean by "free culture" but= we can each talk about the "free culture" in the other's nam= espace.

P.S. On an unrelated note, can lojban easily designate the base used fo= r a number/in math (base ten, two, sixteen, seven, whatever)?
