[lojban-beginners] Love



The gismu file lists the following entry:
 prami pam     pa'i love                                      x1 loves/feels
strong affectionate devotion towards x2 (object/state)
9d 115    [also: x1 is loving towards x2, x1 is a lover of x2 (one sense),
x2 is beloved by x1 (= selpa'i for reordered places)]; (cf. cinmo, xebni,
nelci, djica, sinma, pluka, kurji, pendo, speni)

The draft dictionary file lists this other entry among some similar ones:
*affectionate (feels |), x1 loves/feels strong | devotion towards x2
(object/state) /:/ [also: x1 is loving towards x2, x1 is a lover of x2 (one
sense), x2 is beloved by x1 (= selprami for reordered places)] /=/ prami
(pam pa'i)

Now I have a question, in both entries it's specified that x2 takes an
object or a state in the first definition. The remaining ones do not specify
what kind of argument it takes. So I cannot decide if I can or cannot put a
person at x2. Could you clarify? Thanks.
