[lojban] xruba
The word "xruba" is glossed "buckwheat", although it can refer to buckwheat,
sorrel, rhubarb, or any other member of the Polygonaceae (but not wood
sorrel). I coined a word "xrixruba" to refer to buckwheat specifically, and
someone may invent words for sorrel or rhubarb specifically. There is AFAIK
no English word for Polygonaceae in general. What should the gloss for
"xruba" be?
