In my experience, Jbovlaste is turning into a quite mature resource. When encountering an unfamiliar fu'ivla in writing, I usually check Jbovlaste first, with good hopes of turning up an entry. This is ESPECIALLY true if the fu'ivla is a type IV, because it takes more effort to construct such words, and they are therefore more likely to be documented. -- Arnt Richard Johansen http://arj.nvg.org/ "My speech recognition software may have trouble with ordinary words, but not with ketoprofen." --Magnus Itland 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.
