[jbovlaste] Re: Proposed lujvo

["A. PIEKARSKI" <totus@rogers.com>]

I realize {malba}, {zanba} and {pacna} are all problematical and have been 
hotly disputed.   Expectation is a key component of being optimistic or 
pessimistic, but I don't want to use {kanpe} as it is experimental.. I guess 
I was hiding behind the 'any lujvo can mean anything' screen! 

In place of {pacna} then I would propose {jijnu}.  
I prefer {jijnu} to {cinmo} as {jijnu} implies one coming to some sort of conclusion 
whereas {cinmo} may be the emotional result of such a conclusion.

So how about:
{j1 jijnu lodu'u m3 termu'i m2 lo xlali kei j3}
{j1 xlamu'ijijnu m3 m2=j3}.
