[lojban-beginners] Re: cmavo for completing action

[ianek <janek37@gmail.com>]

{mi mo'u zbasu} is timeless, just like {mi klama}. It says that I
complete assembling, but not when (future, past, present). You can say
{mi pu mo'u zbasu}. I'm not sure what would make {ba'o} instead of
{pu}, but probably not what you want. On the other hand, {mi ca ba'o
zbasu} means something like "I have assembled", so it means that the
device is now assembled, but does not stress the moment of completing.

mu'o mi'e ianek
