Re: [lojban] another la .alis. induced question

that is an awful lot of vagueness.

So, {binxo lo tai darno} -> {binxo zo'e noi ke'a tai zo'e broda}.

To make it easier for myself, I'm going to use ba which is easier when trying to demonstrate stuff involving TAGs

cinri lo ba viska -> cinri zo'e noi ke'a ba zo'e viska -> (re-ordering because it's easier for me) -> cinri zo'e noi ke'a viska ba zo'e -> (something) <is interesting to> (the one who sees (after something) )

So {binxo lo tai darno} is something like {binxo lo darno be tai zo'e} or "becomes (the far thing (in form zo'e) )"....

xorxes, you have an amazing property.  Just when I start getting full of myself, thinking that I have a "pretty good handle" on lojban grammar (if not vocabulary), I come in and read a translation of yours and am put right back in my proper place :-p

lo TAG broda = zo'e noi ke'a TAG broda
                   = zo'e noi ke'a TAG zo'e broda
