That's mixing up words with their referents. The referent of "zo'e" can be a dog, and so is the referent of "lo gerku". That doesn't mean that "zo'e" is somehow replacing "lo gerku". > Apparently it can't though (ko, noda, ma, etc...) Because none of those are words with referents.

If you say "mi citka zi'o" you are saying that you eat, If you say "mi citka no da" you are saying you don't eat. >=A0If so, then my point of contention is with the statement that > {zo'e} cannot be understood to mean {zi'o}. There has been quite a lot of discussion about that one. The problem here is that many gismu place structures are so bloated that in practice "zo'e" is sometimes used with the sense of "zi'o", although logically it shouldn't be. > If I say {mi jinvi fo zo'e} is it not possible that I am claiming to opin= e > something with no basis (i.e. blind faith)? That would be misusing "jinvi", which is for opinions with some basis. There's "krici" when you don't want any basis involved. mu'o mi'e xorxes --=20 You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "= Lojban Beginners" group.
