[lojban-beginners] broda unless lo nu brode

[Luke Bergen <lukeabergen@gmail.com>]

I have seen (and often use) {broda va'o lo nu brode} to mean "broda when/if/under-conditions lo nu brode".  But what if I want to say something like:  "go visit john unless he doesn't want you to".  Can I use {BAInai} to mean something like the inverse of {BAI}?  e.g.   {ko vitke la djan va'onai lo nu ri na djica}.

Or if I say {mi viska do sepi'onai lo darctatci} have I just said "I see you without using a telescope", something entirely different, or something non-grammatical?
