[jbovlaste] Re: Fwd: fi'e or fi'i or other? (duplicate of a message sent to lojban-list)



No, I think everything is ok.  cmavo are different from rafsi. rafsi are not stand-alone words and will never been seen by
 themselves.  For this reason it is ok that {fi'e} is {finti}'s modal because {fi'e} as the rafsi of {finpe} will never be seen by itself, it will always be in a lujvo with other rafsi.

I feel like I've seen things like this before where it was not a big deal (for the above reason).

    I noticed the xml from jbovlaste states fi'e is "finti modal, 1st place (creator) created by ...".  However, fi'e is also a rafsi for finpe.  Should the "finti modal ..." actually refer to fi'i, the rafsi of finti?  If so, what of the fact the file states fi'i is a vocative indicative of hospitality/inhospitality?
