Slip of the brain - I'm new to this lark.  I'm not even sure if I've got
the above {bridi} right. .a'o

I'm having real trouble working out how to say, "I live in Cambridge".  I
imagine it would be one of:

.(home) pe mi nenri la .keimbridj.
.mi (inhabits) .keimbridj.

But every query ("house", "home", "resident", "inhabit") to the dictionary
brings up... Lojban must have a word for "the empty set",  I probably just
haven't got that far yet. .u'i

pitr.
