MorphemeAddict .me cusku di'e > Now I wonder how to say "this home is mine". "ti du lo mi zdani" is > 'this is my home'. Would it start with "lo vi zdani ..."? Apart from the simple {ti mi zdani} "This is my home", if you do not want to say that it's the house you actually live in, but that it's related to you otherwise (or if you just want to be vague), you can say: ti me mi moi lo zdani "This is mine among the houses." Or as a tanru: ti zdani me mi moi "This is a house type of mine." (sounds weird in English, but normal in Lojban) Of course, you can also use {srana} or {ckini}: lo vi zdani mi ckini "This house is associated with me (by some relationship)." Lots of flexibility! mu'o mi'e la selpa'i -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Lojban Beginners" group.
