I usually just use ciksi when discussing what the definition of a word is (according to ciksi1),

So you could do { la jbovlaste ciksi zo tamgau fo zoi by. g1 defines t2 into form t1 .by. }

Is that right? By the way, the by. and .by. in that bridi are based on the section in What Is Lojban, page 39, on quotations, where quoted non-Lojban text is surrounded by {by.} and {.by.}. When I looked this up in the jbovlaste it stated that {by} is simply the letter 'b'. So I'm not sure what function it serves in this bridi.

 

but I suppose that {jdice lo du'u makau smuni} could be used for the sense of "ascribe a meaning to something".

I didn't understand that sentence. Please could you translate it for me? Even looking up the words in the jbovlaste I was unable to understand what it meant.
