Is jbovlaste wrong in its definition of "s1 (mass/set) integrate / unite with each other, displaying quality s2."? http://jbovlaste.lojban.org/lookup?Form=lookup.pl1&Strategy=*&Database=en%3C-%3Ejbo&Query=simbi%27o&submit=Search Actually I am looking at its place values and I understand your comments about agentives now.

Usually {.i} is seen at the > beginning of a line, but there's no rule that prescribes that. :) I'm not sure: it seems more congruent with my thought pattern, perhaps reinforced by how I format separators when programming (C++) or full stops when writing. Artistically I suppose having many ".i" lined up vertically stands out as being a touch repetitive/distracting? Alternatively it could be made to look quite decorative, depending on the font.
