Implicitly or #> explicitly connected jufra jointly form a logical bridi. # #I thought that a jufra is composed of 0 or more bridi. For example: #{.uiro'o} is one jufra with zero bridi. #(le mlatu cu bunra} is one jufra with one bridi. #{ro da se risna .ijo da se livga} is one jufra with two bridi. #{mi klama le zarci .i mi rinsa le pendo} is two jufra with two bridi. #Whether two bridi connected by {.iku'i} or {.ibo} are separate jufra is iffy. By "jufra" I meant "things separated by {i}", which may be an incorrect definition. By 'logical bridi' I mean "a proposition/predication/thing-that- has-a-truthvalue expressed by a Lojban bridi or by a logically connected set of Lojban bridi". Lojban metalanguage is always confusing, but one would have to get really anal to deconfuse it. --And. To unsubscribe, send mail to lojban-unsubscribe@onelist.com Your use of Yahoo!
