I would just like to know what separates lojban from other artificial languages, let\'s say esperanto (that is the only AL I know). On the Swedish version of the homepage I find 11 examples of what makes this language uniqe. There\'s one word \"predicate logic\" that I don\'t understand completely, but I think it means that the predicate is always the main subject in each sentence. Anyhow, no one of the other 10 examples make it clear to me, why I should learn Lojban instead of Esperanto (or anyother of all those artificall languages). Thank you for your time!
