E.g. how do I transform a statement like "Saddam is evil" ("la sadam. palci") into "I think Saddam is evil"? What should I put as the x2 to "jinvi"?mi jinvi le du'u la xusein. palci
I think :-) you could also use a discursive, like "pe'i la xusein. palci" instead of "mi pensi le du'u la xusein. palci" (if you want to stick with this example) See http://www.lojban.org/publications/reference_grammar/chapter13.html
