Re: [lojban] guess a lujvo

[Remo Dentato <rdentato@gmail.com>]

The point is: Pierre siad something (in this case {jmetijdembi}). He
clearly meant something specific and he will successful if we can get
it or he can fail in conveying his meaning to us if we can't get a
clue on what he meant.

The fact that there might other (possibly better) ways of saying what
he wanted to say is relevant, but it's a separate discussion, I think.
