[lojban] Can you do that?! seri'agi

[Luke Bergen <lukeabergen@gmail.com>]

I was just perusing the lojban wiki page and found this example:

seri'agi mi jgari lei djacu gi mi jgari le kabri
With-physical-effect I grasp the-mass-of water, I grasp the cup.
I grasp water, since I grasp the cup.

I didn't know you could just do: TAG+gi broda gi brode.  That's awesome.  Although, I have to admit, I really am not at all sure about what is going on here.

So is {baugi la lojban gi mi tavla} the same thing as {mi tavla bau la lojban}?  But wait... it's like the second {gi} is linking two bridi, so would it have to be {baugi jbobau gi mi tavla}?

So is {mi nelci do mu'i lo nu do nelci mi} = {mu'igi do nelci mi gi mi nelci do}?

Also, I'm suspicious about whether the original author wanted {seri'agi} or {ri'agi}.
