It's really starting to annoy me that after a year of practice, I still can't find tanru to say exactly what I want to mean. I think this is all grammatical, but does it mean what I want it to? Can you work out what my two lujvo mean? How can this text be improved on (it is by St Exupery in "Le petit prince" - the whole book is formed of identical form of expression, which would make it a nice book to translate into lojban) mi'e greg. mu'o -- http://www.myepfl.ch/gregory.dyke .i lo'e to'e makcu cu djica lenu tolcumla morsi kei lo telda'a .i lo'e je'a makcu cu go'i to'ebo le se go'i ------------------------ Yahoo!
