But couldn't for example "e^x + e^-x" be a tefsujme'o too? {tenfa} has "exponential" as keyword, even if it ca be used for integer powers too. > "Complete" here does not have its usual meaning, so I don't think {mulno} is > appropriate.

An NP-complete problem is a mulno problem in the sense that once solved, all NP problems become mulno. lo nu danfu lo me NP mulno nabmi cu mulri'a lo nu danfu ro me NP nabmi > The last problem (hopefully) is how to translate a compound of an initialism > and a word. If you want a single "word": {N zei P zei mulno}. I had a scheme to give rafsi to all cmavo at one point. I think it would have given something like ny'ypy'ymulno, or perhaps {ny'yrpy'ymulno}, but I'd have to check the details. mu'o mi'e xorxes 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.
