[lojban] Re: Fwd: Re: Re: New language: lojban



coi ro do

I have translated 81 sentences into Lojban so far. I am relatively
new, so I'm sure there are plenty of mistakes (particularly relating
to tenses/event contours on some of the more complex sentences). I
also had to make up a few lujvo (e.g. narseljukpa for "raw" in the
sense of "uncooked"). Please feel free to leave comments if you notice
a mistake or just a bad translation.

Anyway, I think we might want to set some standards for Lojban on
Tatoeba. I know that you can have multiple translations, however I
think that in many cases we should try to avoid it.

Here are the things I can think of:

- Periods. I have not used them except for {.I}, only because I think
it looks nicer, and the rules are really not that hard to follow. If
everyone else thinks we should use them for things like {.oi} and {la
djan.}, then I'll change my sentences.

- {ti noi broda} vs. {lo vi broda} (and same with ta/va and tu/vu). So
far, I have created two translations for each sentence like this,
which you are allowed and encouraged to do. However, if the community
thinks one is significantly better than the other, I will change them.

- {lo} vs. {le}. Yes, I know, xorlo. However, remod uses {le} a lot
more than I do. I think it would be kind of silly to have multiple
translations with just different gadri.
