Re: [lojban-beginners] translation check on zo-related quote

[Jonathan Jones <eyeonus@gmail.com>]

Attempting to keep as close to the English as possible:

{ganai do djuno be lodu'u pilno zo zo ja reisku gi do xa'o djuno lo danfu}

or, to use only non-experimental cmavo:

{ganai do djuno be lodu'u pilno zo zo ja reisku gi do puco'i djuno lo danfu}

I'm not exactly happy about using ja, as that's "and/or", but I don't know what's better.

I'm editing the zo[1] page on the wiki, and I want to translate the
following text to Lojban:

 if you know how to use zo and ask, you already know the answer.

Taking some liberties, I've got this:

 go do nunpreti zo zo gi do djuno lo du'u pilno zo zo

Can you make it better?
