Re: [lojban] le ze romoi selsku be la Yecus

["Jorge Llambias" <jjllambias@hotmail.com>]

I suppose you meant {le zeboi romoi selsku}. This is
of the seventeen-tallest-men type. Only one of the expressions
is romoi. The other six are da'amoi, da'aremoi, da'acimoi,
da'avomoi, da'amumoi and da'axamoi. They are all ma'uda'azemoi.
So it should be {le ma'uda'azemoi selsku be la iecus}.

Or perhaps you did mean {zeromoi}. Would it be useful/sensible
to define {zero}={ma'uda'aze}?

I swear that my first take on {papap}, before knowing what
this was about, was "why is he addressing the number 11?"
What's wrong with {doi patfu} or {doi paf}?

> doi ninmu ta ca'e bersa do

I think I prefer {ta do bersa ca'e}.

> ti ba'o mulno

What is {ti}? (I was about to make a comment on the speaker's
difficult position for point at anything, but I better not.)
Why not just {ba'o mulno}?

> doi papap fi ledo xance fa mi lacri dunda lemi pruxi

I would have said {punji} instead of {dunda}. I take it
that placing on someone's hand can be symbolic of giving,
but giving to the hand seems like too much. Or maybe not,
I don't know.
