Re: [lojban] Gerunds, infinitives and other technicalities

[Escape Landsome <escaaape@gmail.com>]

If a tanru construction is the whole thing, and the glue, an
unspecified semantic or pragmatic link, then, wouldn't the tanru of
(quest AND question AND questioning) suffice to get the term ?

If I was to explain by a periphrase the way quest questions and
questioning are related and tied together in "the Question", I may
verily capture the meaning of it and create a big lojbanic word that
express the meaning of it, but the trouble, you see, is that this very
big word should be the length of the whole book...
