Re: [lojban] Re: lojban ills: implicit emphasis



Yah, you're right -- even with my primitive level of Lojban knowledge, I can see that SE cmavo could be removed without dramatic loss of usability (though as a fan of combinatory logic, I would hate to see them go .. se is what is called the C combinator in combinatory logic ;-)

Not true.  You could drop all of the mekso cmavo, FA, and SE with
only very minor restrictions resulting.  In fact, (with my parser at
least), you could drop BAI, which is the largest cmavo group in the
language, as well.
