[jbovlaste] zu'edji

[Luke Bergen <lukeabergen@gmail.com>]

I think I actually may have taken some part in defining this word:

Word: zu'edji [jbovlaste]
        Type: lujvo
  Gloss Word: intend in the sense of "wish to do"
  Gloss Word: pretend in the sense of "wish to do"
  Definition: z1 intends/wishes to do z2 for z3.
  Place Keywords:
    1. pretender in the sense of "someone who wishes to do something"
    2. pretention

But could somebody remind me why "intend" is a gloss for zu'edji.  When tax season comes around I "intend" to get my taxes done but I really don't desire to do them.  People intend to do all kinds of things that they really don't djica/desire/want/wish to have happen.  Also the "for z3" is kind of ambiguous.  I'm assuming that it means "for purpose/towards end z3" but it's not clear.

I propose changing the definition of {zu'edji} just a bit so that instead of:

Definition: z1 intends/wishes to do z2 for z3

we have:

Definition: z1 wishes/desires to do z2 for purpose z3

and create a new lujvo: {zukpla} with a definition like:

Definition: z1 intends/plans to do z2 (event) for purpose z3

Thoughts and opinions?

Also, how easy/not is it to modify an existing definition?  Would there need to be a whole new definition made and up-voted and then just down-vote this definition?  Because that seems excessive and maybe not worth it.
