Re: [bpfk] BPFK work



I'm surprized that this is even in doubt at this point, and I'm not
going to look for examples from CLL, but here is a quote from the
"Lesson 4: Conversation" from the draft-textbook:
http://www.lojban.org/publications/draft-textbook/lesson04

<<
4.5.1
Rick And Alice
la rik. .e la .alis.

A:   zo .alis. cu cmene mi
     "Alice" is-the-name of me.

     .i ma cu cmene do
     What is-the-name of you?

R:   zo .rik. cu cmene mi
     "Rick" is-the-name of me.

     .i mi cu cilre la lojban.
     I learn Lojban.

A:   ma cu ctuca
     What/who teaches?

R:   la djos. cu ctuca
     Joe teaches.

A:   ti cu cukta la lojban.  .i mi cu cilre la lojban. ti
     this is-a-book about Lojban.  I learn about Lojban from it.

R:   ta cu cukta la lojban. ma
     That is-a-book about Lojban by what/whom?

A:   ti cu cukta la lojban. la djos.
     This is-a-book about Lojban by Joe.

R:   mi cu cilre la lojban. la djos.
     I learn about Lojban from Joe.

A:   ko'a cu stizu  .i mi cu zutse ko'a  .i ko cu klama ko'a pe'u doi rik.
     It is-a-chair.  I sit in it.  Go/come to it, please O Rik.

You can see that each speaker separates their sentences with ".i", but
does not continue the text of the previous speaker. Each speaker
starts a new text in each turn.
