[lojban-beginners] Re: latest lujvo.txt file?



coi xal

The latest lujvo list I could find was at http://www.lojban.org/publications/draft-dictionary/NORALUJV.txt.  As a side note, I'd recommend at least checking jbovlaste out; it's a pretty thorough dictionary-style reference, and I love the way all the info is organized.

I think lujvo can exceed the limit of five.  They're incorporating the predicate relationships from at least two different gismu, and while some of that information becomes irrelevant during the compounding, the stuff that needs to be there needs to be there, and so it stays in more spaces.  Also, I believe if you just keep adding sumti to a selbri, they remain attached, without really meaning anything.  Or maybe they mean something unspecified.  I don't really know how it works.  Try running a sentence with too many arguments through jbofi'e, and you'll see what I mean.

I don't know a thing about LLG processes.  Sorry.

1. Where is the latest lujvo.txt file? Or is it totally
superseded somehow by jbovlaste (which I really haven't
looked at yet)?

2. Also: Why does this file reference things like x6 and x7?
I thought there were never more than five normal sumti?

3. Finally: Is there a process in place for making minor
corrections to these files?


Thanks much,
