Re: [lojban-beginners] What can you do with Lojban that you can't do with English?

Bill and Jeff were fighting and he hit him.
Lojban makes explicit who hit whom.

Do you spit blue?

We have red chickens and cows.
Are the cows red?

Bill and Jeff went to the store.
Did they go together?

It's implicit in English and explicit in Lojban. Also the grammar is predicate based.
