Hey everyone.
Several times I have encountered the claim that lojban sets are rarely used. This appears strange to me, for the following reason. Certain gismu , such as cmima , simxu and probably others expect a set for an arguments. For instance, I was trying to translate into lojban "We teach each other". The result was
lu'i mi'o simxu le nu ctuca
The lu'i is needed here to transform the mass mi'o into the set needed for simxu . Without it, the meaning would be something like "each of us is a set the elements of which teach each other".
So, why are sets rarely used?
Many thx for any help!
Best regards,
