"Beagle" is a se gerku, not a ka se gerku, which is what defines the entire class of dog breeds. The dogless dog breed that some DNA-specifying software defines is neither a se gerku nor a ka se gerku. Possibly it is se ckaji be lo ka se gerku; I'm too dozy to think that through. Or maybe: {lo ka ce'u gerku la'o gy this new hypothetical dog breed}. {ro da poi de ka ce'u gerku ke'a} would refer to every dogbreed. --And. > The property can surely exist (Platonists take note) in what ever > way properties do exist even if nothing ever has that property (it does in > some world or situation or even tinier realm).
