Go!

[Matthew Faupel <matthew@CPDAPO.TELE.NOKIA.FI>]

As part of a drive to start learning Lojban again (now that pressure at work
has lessened slightly), I decided to rename some of my more common utilities
to Lojban names.  The first one that came to mind is a script called "go"
that I use to start of a number of commonly used things just after I log in.

I tried to find a bridi to match "go", with the meaning start something.  I
assumed that there would be one as I knew of "sisti", but only found "cfari"
which is intransitive.  Which leads me to the question, is:

    ko gasnu le cfari

the shortest possible translation for "go" (meaning start some process as
opposed to physically moving yourself)?  Is:

    gau ko cfari

valid, and does it mean the same thing?  How about:

    cfari gau ko

Are there any alternative mechanisms based on forming a lujvo?

Cheers,
