[lojban-beginners] Re: Hawk and eagle



I cannot agree with such a translation, since it, firstly, doesn't reflect the meaning of the call signs.
Secondly, {mi damba jinga lo dinju} means "We fightingly win a building as a prize".
I'd rather say {mi mo'u lebna le zdani} instead.
And thirdly, {je'e mi'e xok.} means "Acknowledged, this is Hawk", which is wrong in this context.
