[lojban-beginners] Distinguishing Type 3 and 4 fu'ivla



Is there a way to always distinguish between Type 3 and Type 4
fu'ivla?  "cidjrspageti" is a Type 3 fu'ivla based on Lojbanizing
"spaghetti" to "spageti", and then attaching "cidj-" from the rafsi
for "cidja" for "food" and an r-hyphen.  However, upon first
encountering that word in text could it not also be a Type 3 fu'ivla
based on a longer natural language word?
