Re: [lojban-beginners] Re: Friends will be friends
For some time, I've wanted to translate the following phrase:
my flesh has cooled the fire.
my flesh has warmed the iron.
I haven't quite figured it out yet, and I'm wondering if ca'a is one
of the clues I've needed. I get this far, using ca'a:
lo mi skapi pu ca'a lenku {...} lo fagri
I'm not sure whether I want {lenku} or {dunja}, and I'm not sure how
to make sentences like the above, which I perceive as having two
predicate relationships, work. That's the {...} in the above. {lo
fagri} is not the x2 place of lenku, so I have to mark an extra
place. My closest guess is to use a BAI cmavo, but I'm just not sure.
Will someone give me a clue here?
mu'o mi'e .alyn.
