Re: [lojban] a construal of lo'e & le'e
la pycyn cusku di'e
How did prototype chat move from {loi}, where it lived for a couple
decades,
to {lo'e}?
I think it was when collective chat took over {loi}.
The correspondence with Loglan goes something like this:
Lojban: lo le loi("mass") lo'e lo'i("set")
Loglan: -- le leu("set") lo("mass") ----
Loglan doesn't need Lojban {lo} because it uses bare quantifiers
for that (Lojban does this too, so we don't really need it either).
In Loglan "sets" can carry logs, in Lojban "masses" do this.
Loglan's "mass" is Mr Rabbit, which corresponds to Lojban's {lo'e}.
Loglan is blessed by not having a gadri for mathematical sets.
{le} is the same for both.
