I firmly believe that the only words lojbanists *should* ever need to look up are already published in wordlists. If a lujvo needs looking up (with the possible exception of one used in some particular field, which has a complex place structure, is often used in that field, but never by anyone else) it is f**** useless. No, scrap that idea, any lujvo which is not created for zipf purposes and understandable on the fly is useless. I'll start a topic on what we all think lujvo are for, that should keep us going 'till christmas (winter solstice for all of us except xorxes ;-) > > True. > > > And "le" leaves such room for latitude that in practice and with the > > publicity generated by this discussion, "le ralcku" can surely be used > > with understanding now. yeah, you say {la ueb goi le ralcku} and then you can use ralcku to you hearts content. mi'egreg ------------------------ Yahoo!
