[lojban-beginners] Re: Debug my propaganda?



   Ah, so now I see what's troubling you.  I don't believe it will,
since we are talking about the sate of the fact here-and-now.  But if it
btohers you, a ca'o ("continues to") thrown in there might be the
answer....

Whoops, actually "lo jeftu be li pavo cu temci ...".  I think that's
finally right.  But yes, that's getting a bit unwieldy now.  I'm not
quite sure about Michael's versions either, though.  Would they imply
that I will no longer study Lojban, since that would make false his
assertion that the event of me studying is 14 weeks in duration?  My
version gets by saying that the time between starting to learn and
(elided) now is 14 weeks.
