I mean, as you well know, >"the particular unicorn I have in mind." And if that doesn't work, use {la >cerlakolmz}. I didn't mean it as a dodge. I still don't understand your objection. mi sisku lo pavyseljirna poi mi pensi ke'a There is a unicorn that I am thinking about, which I seek. This can be true only if there is such a unicorn in the world of the utterance. mi sisku le'e pavyseljirna I seek the unicorn(s) (the one(s) I have in mind). This is like {lo'e} except that the underlying class is {le'i pavyseljirna} instead of {lo'i pavyseljirna}. ><< >mi sisku lo'e pavyseljirna > I seek a unicorn.

They seem perfectly reasonable to me. The one with {le'e} above would be, in terms of official {sisku}: mi sisku le ka le pavyseljirna zo'u ce'u du py >which is why your {kai-} move looks >a bit like the {sisku} one. The {sisku} move is half of my {lo'e}-move. My {kairsisku} is exactly Lojban's official {sisku}. But I don't propose to ever use {kairsisku}, except in a linguistic discussion about how to define {lo'e}. >It isn't the same -- or at least has not yet >been shown to be. How can it not be the same, when I am defining my {kairsisku} as Lojban's {sisku}? mu'o mi'e xorxes _________________________________________________________________ Send and receive Hotmail on your mobile device: http://mobile.msn.com ------------------------ Yahoo!
