Re: [lojban] non-ka properties



Sorry; I should have clarified "in text", there are , of course, properties 
never referred to or not in this corpus, etc. but, if they are referred to at 
all, they are referred to using ka-expressions (or indirectly). On the issue of 
whether one ka expression can refer to several (though presumably even then not 
uncountably many) different properties, I gave to suppose that is as true as the 
claim that some predicates are ambiguous, which seems certainly true -- maybe 
even in a given context.

"Only", perhaps. "All", I doubt. The number of ka-expressions is
countable, while the number of properties is not. Perhaps you are
allowing the same ka-expression to be used to refer to more than one
property.
