RE: [lojban] A or B depending on C
la and cusku di'e
This was discussed about 18 months ago: "What i have for dinner depends
on what's in the fridge". It generalizes to your case: "Which of
{A, B} is true depends on what is C".
Right! Did we find a good word for "x1 depends on x2"?
I can't think of anything right now. Would {jalge} work?
For example:
le du'u abu jikau by broda cu jalge le du'u xukau cy brode
"Whether A or B broda results from whether C brode."
My brain died before that thread was resolved, but iirc you
were happy to handle it as "le du'u Q kau broda kei depends-on
le du'u Q kau brode".
It still sounds good, but of course we are still missing
a full logical explanation of {kau}, which is another UI
that mucks around with truth values.
