[lojban-beginners] Lojban Breakfast
coi rodo
For no good reason at all, I'm trying to write the story of my morning
in Lojban. All was going well until I got to breakfast. You
see, I had bread and butter (or buttered bread, take your pick) and a
doughnut, and I'm having trouble expressing "bread with butter, and a
doughnut" without it sounding like I ate bread, butter, and a
doughnut. I tried using gunma (with internal sumti for bread and
butter), but that just sounds long and horribly complicated, and also
makes it hard to figure out just which terminators I need before I can
start talking about the doughnut. Any ideas on how to express
"bread and butter" concisely?
Thanks,
