[lojban-beginners] Wives And Husbands Under Laws



The current file with lujvo, NORALUJV.txt, defines the place structure of lujvo {fetspe} "wife" and {nakspe} "husband" as


fetspe                         

fetsi+speni:  wife:   x1 = speni1 (married) = fetsi1 (female), x2 = speni3

nakspe                         

nakni+speni:  husband:   x1 = speni1 (married) = nakni1 (male), x2 = speni3


Is it correct that the second sumti is speni3, i.e. married "under law/custom/tradition/system/convention"?


It is obvious that x2 = speni2 would be much more appropriate.

I haven't yet studied the art of defining the lujvo place structure.

Is the above a mistake?


I would like to use {le fetspe be mi} for "my wife", instead of {le mi fetspe} which now is the only option left for me :)
