Sometimes people write "(to ..toi)", which would translate to "to to...toi toi". That's still grammatical, but probably not what was intended.

Probably some like "_" should be taken as a space. mu'o mi'e xorxes 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.
