[lojban-beginners] Re: her whom I would be seeing



Marjorie:

 

When using {goi} it makes no difference whether the {ko’a} is the one that comes first or second, as long as the terminators of the other things are in the right place.

For example, if I wanted to say some things about my friend, more specifically the one that plays reed instruments, the first time I referred to this person I might say

le mi pendo poi pilno fi lonu zgike fe lo xagri ku’o ku goi ko’a

    First, let me say that skaryzgik  is an interesting and pretty choice for a lojbanic handle.  Second, that utterance may not mean exactly what you intended, as the "fe lo xagri" is the x2 place of the "zgike", which is supposed to be an event.  If you meant it there, then you  would probably want "tu'a" before  "lo" Perhaps you meant it to be the X2 place of pilno, in which case you would to close of the nu clause with a kei or ku after zgike.
