[lojban-beginners] klama, go, come, travel

[Jon MacLeod <eye_onus@yahoo.com>]

I was doing some thinking on my way home last night, and this occurred to me:

The English words, go, come, and travel (as verb) mean exactly the same thing,
except for the difference of an impled spatial tense in the words go and come.

Making the implicit tense explicit in Lojban:

go:     zo'e vi klama zo'e
come:   zo'e klama zo'e vi
travel: zo'e klama zo'e

Just thought that was interesting.
