Re: [lojban-beginners] Question about {roda}



It seems to me that the contention is not so much about {da} but mostly about {ro}, and to whether or not an implicit {poi co'e} is permitted in most situations.

This seems perfectly fine (if imprecise) to me, provided this does not apply in a logical prenex.
People who know lojban better than I seem to be having a discussion about this, and I'm trying to keep up and learn.

Yes, I was just saying that since you had {noi}, you might use {poi}
instead and really restrict {da}.

I hope we all will end up with a sort of common understanding.
At the moment I'm still on the side of those that say that {da} may be
implicitly bound by by reasonable assumptions on the context (the
universe of discourse), I'm no longer sure of who's against this point
of view (and why).
