[lojban-beginners] Re: Using description sumti as titles



Yanis,

As the author of the translation, I honestly don't know. I will defer to the judgement of experts on this.

I see that description sumti are used here for some chapter titles, e.g.
The Prophet - {le prije ctuca/le pijyctu}
On Love - {lo ka prami}
...

Isn't it more natural to use (observative) bridi for titles?
{prije ctuca}   instead of  {le prije ctuca}, {ka prami} instead of
{lo ka prami}? I wanted to write here that using description sumti as
titles seems *a bit* malglico, but then changed my mind, zo'o.
