Just a quick comment, Lojban-interest only.

>la berbif. joi la sol. puki darlu lejei ri jikau ra vlimau le drata kei

Your method of "which is stronger" works okay, though note the overloading
of {zo'e} in "le drata [be zo'e]":  There's no easy expansion for it
(wellll, I guess {la berbif. jikau(?) la sol.}, but that's icky, and we
would prefer a non-spec. connective).  Would this be good?:

lejei fi'akau ri fi'akau ra vlimau

Or maybe even {do'e}?  Nah, {fi'a}'s better.  What do you think?
