Re: [lojban] nu pa moi se nunkei la'e lu lo do ckiku ma zvati li'u lu'u
I was just about to comment that it this point in the CLL, the
authors stopped trying to create examples that teach and started
going for anything they cared to throw at the reader. My general
impression of the CLL is that the quality of the examples degrades
as the book progresses, and it is a shame that the one example of
this use given involves uneeded grammar that obscures the main
point. (If there is a main point...)
