[lojban-beginners] Questions re: proper translation/syntax
Hello again.
Please help me out with the following.
=====
[do ca tavla]
you present-time talk
- or -
now you're talking
or is there a better way to express this sentiment?
=====
This one is more complicated.
In a mini-lesson on lojban.org it says that:
[da tavla ta] = someone talks to that person
[do tavla zo'e mi] = you are talking about me
[zo'e tavla mi do] = someone talks to me about you
So, does [da tavla mi] = [zo'e tavla mi]??
Are they both = someone talks to me??
Both [da] amd [zo'e] were used for "someone".
I thought [zo'e] was like a place holder for sumti
that were not important.
