Re: [lojban] la lojbo kurji

  No one directly answered Luke, so I will tell him the answer is:
"Yes, absolutely.  More than one sumti grouped together with logical
or nonlogical conenctives forms a sumti itself."  That's why you can
say, "le mlatu .onai le gerku cu cadzu" (the cat walked if and only if
the dog didn't).  "le mlatu onai le gerku" is filling up exactly one
sumti slot as the x1 of cadzu.  All connectives do is squish more than
one thing in  a given category (sumti, selbri, bridi-tail, bridi) into
one instance of that category.
