[lojban-beginners] Re: la jufra karni

[Liam Dalton <iamdalto@yahoo.com>]

Quite probably I have made mistakes, so would you be willing to make sure that it is fit for La Jufra Karni? My sentence is:

da'i lo nu le besna po nanmu cu nenri jufti'e gi te ckape lo jufti'emlixai?

It is supposed to be my translation of the fools comment to the king in King Lear:

If a man's brains were in his heels, were he not in danger of kibes?

(kibes are blisters to the heels; chilblains)
