I pay attention not to the order but to the general idea that parts of a solid phenomenon are usually within the same gismu. Modals and gismu often overlap with other gismu and I can replace sumti places with modals (like the famous "by standard" which has been recently mentioned in this mailing list). So needless to say that I'm comfortable with the current situation with preti/danfu. I just mean that {danfu} can't exist without {preti}, a question previously asked. And I mean that the division of preti and danfu is too naturalistic and probably reflect English semantics. > On Tue, Jul 3, 2012 at 5:40 AM, gleki wrote: > >> Everyone understands the power of lojban when several sumti are connected >> within >> >> Currently I don't understand why the concepts of "question" and "answer" >> are not linked within one gismu. >> danfu, preti, spuda... no solution. >> >> danfu - x1 is the answer/response/solution/[reply] to question/problem x2. >> preti - x1 (quoted text) is a question/query about subject x2 by >> questioner x3 to audience x4. >> spuda - x1 answers/replies to/responds to >> person/object/event/situation/stimulus x2 with response x3. >> >> I wish I could express something like >> x1 questions someone x2 about x3 getting reply/answer x4 >> >> Robin told me that currently we can say "mi spuda le nu do te preti mi le >> se du'u preti spuda kei kei dei"which isn't exactly compact. >> >> -- >> You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups >> "lojban" group. >> To view this discussion on the web visit >> https://groups.google.com/d/msg/lojban/-/tm1xn6gV4x4J. >> 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=en. >> > > > > -- > mu'o mi'e .arpis. > > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "lojban" group.

That's right. I pay attention not to the order but= to the general idea that parts of a solid phenomenon are usually within th= e same gismu. Modals and gismu often overlap with other gismu and I can rep= lace sumti places with modals (like the famous "by standard" which has been= recently mentioned in this mailing list).

Currently I don't un= derstand why the concepts of "question" and "answer" are not linked within = one gismu.
danfu, preti, spuda... no solution.

danfu - x1 is the answ= er/response/solution/[reply] to question/problem x2.
preti -=  x1 (quoted text) is a question/query about subject x2 by questioner x= 3 to audience x4.
spuda - x1 answers/replies to/responds to person/object/event/sit= uation/stimulus x2 with response x3.

<= div>I wish I could express something like
x1 questions someone x2=  about x3 getting reply/answer x4

Robin told me that currently we can say "mi spuda le nu= do te preti mi le se du'u preti spuda kei kei dei"which isn't exactly= compact.
