Quite another problem with the cited reference.  It seems to say that {ro lo 
rozgu} and {ro rozgu} are equivalent, as I hope they are not.  The first talks 
about each and every one of a bunch of roses (which roses to be worked out from 
context if necessary) while the second talks about each and every rose, period, 
essentially {ro da poi rozgu}, so not equivalent (as far as I can tell).

Subject: [lojban] Hey xorxes: I need some tutoring.


So I'm getting back into some seriously Lojbanning (I'm talking in
#jbopre pretty regularily, and almost entirely in Lojban), and
something came up, which was "lo lojbo ka'a prenu", which seemed odd
to me, and then I noticed the "lo rozgu cu xunre" example at
http://www.lojban.org/tiki/BPFK+Section%3A+gadri

So, I believe that "lo rozgu cu blabi" is also perfectly fine, and
I'd like to explain (again, I know; I'm asking as an unreasonable
favour :), either here or on IRC, how that works.

In particular, is xorlo {lo rozgu} do'a like {su'o rozgu} except
without the implications about existence and distributivity and so
on?

ta'o I thought of translating the above, but I've no idea what I
mean by "In particular,", and I don't feel like disecting it right
now; others should full free, though.
