[lojban-beginners] Re: learning to climb on floors



Isn't {crebi'o} optimistic?  Doesn't it asuume that Connor will become proficient in crawling?

Besides, I thought that learning how to is also cilre, because that's the word used in the title of L4B.  Surely lojban is not a fact, but rather something you learn how to do.  Should I say {mi crebi'o la lojban} rather than {mi cilre [fi] la lojban} ?

facts about it.

For knowing/learning how, one can use {certu}/{crebi'o}:
