X-Yahoo-Group-Post: member; u=116389790; y=l2fh4YPqWvOi92-8W0CmqvJTeuO5B9YmVgVXD_DgZIB-kw-aWw X-Yahoo-Profile: lojban_out X-Yahoo-Message-Num: 26042 On jboselkei, Yanis attempted to translate "Whose Line Is It Anyway?" but he doesn't know the English idiom of attaching "anyway" to a question. Attempting to explain it to him has confused me. I think it means that the question being asked is at a deeper level than whatever the conversation was about before. "Anyway" might be synonymous with "in any case" or "after all." Would we translate it with {.uanai}? -epkat To unsubscribe from this list, send mail to lojban-list-request@lojban.org with the subject unsubscribe, or go to http://www.lojban.org/lsg2/, or if you're really stuck, send mail to secretary@lojban.org for help.
