[lojban-beginners] Re: Conlang test sentence failure.

I don't think {ce} should be used anywhere outside "(set)" places (or
similar). The set of balls does not have properties of balls, it has
properties of a set. A set of people doesn't join a circus; people do.
And honestly I'm not half sure what {ce} exactly does as a tanru
connective. In fact there are no tanru connectives with this property
(I mean, "lo ka mi xadba zo'o jimpe ce'u").

"Lojban speakers should generally think twice before employing the set
descriptors."
