"Alice in Wonderland" is being translated, you can find what we've done so far (about 25% of the book, first draft) in Robin's site: http://www.digitalkingdom.org/lojban/alice/index.html >One comic book that has been translated into many >languages is Tintin. I've been looking at that, and >there'a a lot of stuff I don't know how to say in >Lojban. For example, how do you say 'Flight 714' (Vol >714 pour Sydney) in Lojban? Let's see, A flight is an event of flying, {lo nu vofli}, or better an event going by plane, {lo nu vijykla}. "714" is the name of one of those events, so you could say, for example, {le nu vijykla po'u la zepavon}. >I've read all the lesson >guides on the internet, but they don't say how to >translate a lot of things. That's because the language is still so young that we have to work out how to translate most things from scratch. co'o mi'e xorxes _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.
