I don't either, and my Russian is even rustier than my Lojban (and I wa= s=20
never better than "semi-fluent in 6-year-old Russian" when I could talk= =20
clumsily to my newly adopted kids 20 years ago), but I seem to recall= =20
that there is an adjective form for most nouns, and IIRC you can turn a= n=20
adjective into a verb in a couple of ways.

Also, while zdani is translated into English easiest as a noun or=20
perhaps a verb, but there is an adjective version as well (though very= =20
hard to render in English).  This is a housish thing of mine, perh= aps.=20
Or perhaps the gerund version (which may have a Russian equivalent) Thi= s=20
is housing for me.

If you wanna get such translatio= ns then i can give them to you. However, russian is obviously not as flexib= le as lojban. Of course, mutilating rigid natlangs in order to show somethi= ng from lojban grammar is possible (see an example with "a dog all over the= road" in Wave lessons showing amazing effects of {tu'o}).
But i wouldn't recommend it without further explanations.
In fact {zdani mi}~=3D"a-house-of me". But in Russian i can't = apply "pronoun+genitive case" that corresponds to English <'of'+pronoun&= gt;.

However, one can choose "noun+genitive" and this will b= e grammatically correct in Russian.
So we could change the exampl= e from {ti zdani mi} to {ti zdani lo gerku}=3D"this is-a-house+of a-dog"=3D= "=DC=D4=CF =C4=CF=CD =D3=CF=C2=C1=CB=C9-GENITIVE".

This suffers from the same problem as the = original did, namely, that it doesn't show the verbness of "zdani". In this= thread, we've beaten it to death (made it abundantly clear a'o), so the is= sue should be clear. And the text has been fixed already.

Please inform of any other = issues with the translation if you find them.
