[lojban] Re: I usually take out the garbage on Mondays

["Jorge Llambías" <jjllambias@gmail.com>]

The fact that any of the sumti or the selbri of a bridi can be
the focus of "usually" suggests that it really belongs with the
po'o-ji'a group, and indeed this is reasonable: po'o indicates
that it is the only relevant case, ji'a that it is one case in addition
to others, and "usually" that it is a typical or most common case.
The closest I can find in UI for this idea is {ra'u}. This would
give us:

   mi ra'u vimcu lo festi ca lo lurdei
   It is chiefly me who takes out the garbage on Mondays.

   mi vimcu lo festi ra'u ca lo lurdei
   It is chiefly garbage that I take out on Mondays.

   mi vimcu lo festi ca lo lurdei ra'u
   It is chiefly on Mondays that I take out the garbage.

   mi vimcu ra'u lo festi ca lo lurdei
   It is chiefly taking it out what I do to the garbage on Mondays.

{ra'unai} could then be used in a similar manner for "rarely".
