Re: [lojban] Train catching ut nunc





la xod cusku di'e

pu ki mi pu'o je banai snada tu'a le trene

I believe this is the way I would express it myself.

That works too. The {je banai} part will in many cases
be obvious from the context, just as you are relying on
context to sort out what {tu'a} stands for, but there is
no harm in expressing it.

My problem with this is that I can never remember if a ja'a ru'e is a
success or a failure.

It's a {ja'a}, what else? {ja'a snada} success, {ja'a fliba} failure.

My problem with it is the sense in which it is weak. I'm not
sure "barely" is the only possible interpretation.
