[lojban-beginners] "technology"



mi'e vid

The official lujvo for "technology" is {mi'irlarcu}, from {minji
larcu}. I don't think this works for every case. Yes, "technology"
seems to often involve {minji}, "machine", but not always. The
definition goes like: "the practical application of knowledge
especially in a particular area" and "a capability given by the
practical application of knowledge"
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technology). For that concept, I would
like to use another lujvo from {tadji} and {larcu}, for example
(though, unfortunately, {tadji} doesn't have a short rafsi). What do
you think?
