[lojban-beginners] except for




I'm way out of my depth here.  Can someone give me some pointers on how to say "except for"? Example: "Except for eels, I like all fish".

 Is this some sort of relative clause that I've not seen?

I see da'a for "everything except", but it's only supposed to take a number?

or can I use panra -- x1 is similar to x2 differing only by x3? "i lo angila te panra me nelci lo finpe" ? But I think that's "I'm similar to liking (fish except eels)"?!

Maybe I should go back to the Dick and Jane stuff for the moment...
