Re: [lojban] UI affecting the previous word

[".alyn.post." <alyn.post@lodockikumazvati.org>]

At jbonunsla we talked about this issue with an example like this:

.i doi la cribe xu do klama

Where {xu} is binding to {doi}, which can't even be fixed by using
the {do'u} terminator.  That conversation ended with the suggestion
that you be specific about what you're {xu}ing in the sentence.

So, yes!
