How does one say "recurring", as in "0.3 recurring = 0.33333333..."? 2. The set of even numbers and the set of integers are both infinite, but how does one express the notion that the latter is bigger, because there are twice as many integers as even numbers? In what property does the set of integers exceed the set of even numbers? I presume there is a well-known answer to this question, but the best I can do on my own is something along the lines of "frequency" or "distributional density" (within the set of integers/numbers/whatever); if that is the way to go, then how does one actually say it in Lojban? --And. [p.s. I'm back after an absence of a couple of months, tho it seems longer, but I've just noticed that Major is back after what must be an absence of several years. It's nice to see returners.
