Re: [lojban-beginners] Argument repetition for emphasis?



I'd say that {lo broda be fa lo brode} == {lo broda NOI ke'a brode} is probably fair; an interesting question is which NOI it is, though. I'd be inclined to say it's actually poi, not noi.

Of course, this can change a bit when we're already talking about {lo brode}, I think, though I have a hunch that THAT thought actually is just me being malglico.

That makes sense, but if I saw "lo fatci be fa lo du'u mi nakni" I would read that as something like "lo du'u mi nakni kei noi ke'a fatci".  As in "I am male (which is a [true ]fact)".

But that might just be me being malglico.
