Is this correct? chapter 14 says quite something different: firstly, I would expect the ".e" to be "je" secondly, I thought this sentence means: I am a friend of you, and John is a friend of James. Furthermore, chapter 12 reads, just below example 14.6: > Note that this lujvo is symmetrical between ``lantro'' (sheep- > controller) and ``gerku'', but ``lantro'' is itself a asymmetrical > lujvo. It should be "an asymmetrical", not "a asymmetrical" co'o mi'e reneis.
