ka, not ni. ni is quantity, ka is property.

Although this is completely unrelated to the thr= ead -- then again so is your reply, too -- the abstraction suggestions in t= he gimste are not prescriptive.

I know this. I'm a big proponent of same.=A0

Some of us have adopted a system of abstractions that i= s more self-consistent, and indeed, that system puts a quantity abstractor = in zmadu3. What gleki said isn't wrong; it simply doesn't conform t= o your style of Lojban.

Actually, no. It is wrong, because he is transl= ating ni as property. "(I exceed you in property of being big)". = I wasn't saying he needed to put a property there, I was saying that ni= is /not/ a property., it's a quantity.

Yes, I was abviously wro= ng. .i .u'u
The correct translation=A0

mi zmadu do lo ni barda (I exceed you in quantity of being big)=A0

=3D> mi poi zilkarbi do cu barda (I compared to= you is big).
(However, I'm not sure if the second = sentence is about properties of qunatities).
