You have misquoted me. My words were, as you quoted them correctly the first time: "[Esperanto is] a fully defined, complete and functioning language, which lojban is very far from being at the moment." So what I *have* said about lojban, is that it's "far from being a fully defined, complete and functioning language", not just that it's "far from functioning". I have to say that I'm disappointed and surprised at the same time at the irony of having my words so terribly misinterpreted and misunderstood by a lojban enthusiast. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "lojban" group.

You did, actually:

 it's a fully defined, complete and functioning language, which
 lojban is very far from being at the moment

"far from functioning" is very different from "incomplete".

You have misquoted me. My words were, as you quoted them correctly t= he first time:

"[Esperanto is] a fully defined, complete and functio= ning language, which
 lojban is very far from being at the moment."

So what I *have= * said about lojban, is that it's "far from being a fully defined, complete= and functioning language", not just that it's "far from functioning".


I have to say that I'm disappointed and surprised at the same time = at the irony of having my words so terribly misinterpreted and misunderstoo= d by a lojban enthusiast.
