[lojban-beginners] Question and articles 2



I think it is the same problem again, I have to translate:
"The group of four women kiss Ricky Martin."
I translated it to
{lu'o le vo ninmu cu cibna la rikis.martin.}
while the correct translation is
{lu'o vo lo ninmu cu cinba la rikis.martin.}

Wouldn't {lu'o vo lo ninmu cu cinba la rikis.martin.} translate to "four 
women, as a group, kiss Ricky Martin." ? I was taught, in previous sections, 
that {vo lo ninmu} was a way to say "three women" instead of "the three 
women" which was introduced earlier as {le vo ninmu}.

Can someone shed some light in the matter ?

Thank you {ki'e}
