[lojban] Verbing weirds language
I was thinking of Calvin's statement that "every noun can be verbed".
Then I considered how to say that in Lojban, before realising that it's
probably meaningless there.
I think the equivalent in Lojban grammatical terms would be roughly
"every brivla can be used as a selbri", but if you told a Lojbanist
that, they'd probably react as if you had said "every gismu has five
letters", since both statements are (to me) tautologies.
