[jbovlaste] Re: new word: prolijmo'a



I just found vlina in gismu.txt:

I'm pretty happy with that as a description of checkerboard patterns.
it covers:
a) that a checkerboard is made up of colors which are mutually
exclusive (not necessarily just two overall, though.. just that two
adjacent squares of the same color are not possible)
b) that the elements are right angled rectangles, not merely 'right
angled lines'
    (this leaves the possibility of uneven width ribbons, which I
think is reasonably
     described as an eccentric or irregular checkerboard)
c) that it's a pattern :)
