[lojban-beginners] Re: pamoi le'i dotco prenu poi ...
doi .aleks. di'e bau la gliban.
{do pa moi lo dotco prenu lo ka mi penmi ce'u ca ma kau}
Explanation. The x2 of {pa moi} is the ordering rule.
xorxes suggests to order the set of German people by the date "when I
met them". Ordering rule here must be a ka (quality),
so the quality is {ka mi penmi ce'u ca ma kau [kei]}.
or, literally, "the quality of my meeting them [=ce'u], at what time"?
{ma kau} stands here, because "when" is an indirect question.
