Thanks for the feedback. I've made some changes, which will be included the 
next time I update the lessons. If you find any mistakes in the text, 
you're welcome to change it directly.

Regarding the abstractions si'o, nu and ka, I think they are too advanced 
to be taught early on. The semantics of them is discussed in lesson 29. 
I've added a line explaining that: "The meanings of these is a complicated 
matter, and will be discussed much later, in lesson twenty-nine. For now, 
you'll have to do without them."

In the wave lessons, I've chosen to present tenses simply as sumtcita, even 
though the grammar for PU is different than for BAI. In the beginning of 
lesson 10, it says: "No, in the Lojban tense system, all tenses are 
sumtcita, which we have conveniently just made ourselves familiar with. 
Okay okay, technically, tenses are slightly different from other sumtcita, 
but this difference is almost insignificant, and will be won't be explained 
until later."

I've added a sentence: "In most aspects they are like all other sumtcita; 
they are terminated bu ''ku'', for example.", making it explicit that PU is 
terminated by ku.
