(I'm not sure what you hope to gain by that, though.) Or you could use something like {ma'ekla} (< marce + klama), "to go with vehicle". Since place structure in lujvo is basically up to the author of the lujvo, you could give it the place structure you wanted. (It would probably not be easily comprehensible unless the place structure were formed by fairly regular rules, which I can't be bothered to look up in the refgramm at the moment. Basically, m1=k5 and m2=k1, while m3 might be k4 though I'm not sure about that. And m4 should also appear somewhere in the place structure of the lujvo.) > or perhaps re-arranging the existing place structure without such > constructs as 'te xe ve te' or 'xe ka'a' Re-arranging the existing place structure is pretty much the domain of SE, as far as I know (and, to a lesser degree, of modals [such as FIhO and BAI], which can add unnumbered places). > "I have a brain, I've just lost my mind." -Ian McLeod-----BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK-----Version 3.1GSC>$ d+(++) s++:-- a-- C++ UL P L>+++ !E W+(++) N++ o?
