I think they are different too. One difference I see is that a plan is
more detailed and explicitely worked out than an intention. I'm just
not sure that adding zuk- to platu really has the effect of moving
from the English "plan" to the English "intend". In fact I'm not even
sure I understand "platu" to begin with, since I don't see what the
difference between its x2 and x3 is supposed to be. Is "doing your
taxes" the x2 or the x3, and what would the other be?

  In fact, I personally think that the x3 is poorly worded in jbovlaste, and that it really should be "goal" in the same way that zukte, gunka, gunta, etc. ... x1 plans x2 towards goal x3
