As I found it, it was {ko'e cu se banta'a co cabna lo tolci'o berdo'obau}, which means "it [Old English] was language-spoken to at the same time as Old Norse", but as {tavla} has a place for a language, and languages are not people spoken to, I'm not sure what {banta'a} is supposed to mean. phma To unsubscribe from this list, send mail to lojban-list-request@lojban.org with the subject unsubscribe, or go to http://www.lojban.org/lsg2/, or if you're really stuck, send mail to secretary@lojban.org for help.
