[lojban] this sentence struck me funny

[Pierre Abbat <lojban-out@lojban.org>]

I'm looking on the Web for anything about rituals involving the jatobá tree 
(which in Lojban I call {kurbarile}, from the species name) and found a page 
with this sentence:

...a língua dos Enawenê Nawê é parecida com a língua falada pelos Pareci.

I took "parecida" as the Portuguese word (it means "similar" or "appeared"), 
then noticed the similarity to the people named at the end, then thought {123 
da} and extended the last word to {parecivomu}. :)
