[lojban-beginners] Re: {me ko'a} instead of {broda} ?

[ianek <janek37@gmail.com>]

It can also be deduced from "BPFK Section: gadri".

We have definitions:
lo [PA] broda	 zo'e noi ke'a broda [gi'e zilkancu li PA lo broda]
PA [sumti]		 PA da poi ke'a me [sumti]

So, {pa lo re gusta} translates to {pa da poi ke'a me zo'e noi ke'a
gusta gi'e zilkancu li re lo gusta}
ie.
"one (quantified) thing which is one of something, which is
restaurant(s) and consists of two counting by units of restaurants" or
something like that, or if you'd like it put more simply: "Never
imagine yourself..." err sorry, "one of two restaurants".
