[lojban-beginners] Re: Preliminary chapter 1 for Lojban learners
I've been busily working on improving the chapter, incorporating all
the feedback so far. I tested the original chapter against someone, M,
who had never seen constructed language, and is monolingual in English
(with a smattering of Spanish).
M had interpreted {zo'e} as being the preposition "in". While not
correct, it is also logical given the input. I realized that errors of
interpretation can and will occur during language acquisition, and
this is just a natural part of the process, and hopefully future input
would correct the problem. The last thing I want to do is overwhelm
the reader by presenting the CLL in footnotes :)
M did interpret everything else correctly :)
