Re: [lojban] Dot-side and non-cmevla?

The one who I saw mention "la ka trina" spoke of it in such a 
way that it seemed that it was a cross-lingual pun.  Someone's 
name translates to "the quality of attractiveness", but happens 
to be homophonous with a common English name, "Katrina"; it is 
cute.  Remember the CCL, chap. 8, section 6 
( http://dag.github.com/cll/8/6/#e10 ), explicitly permits 
some complex phrases in cmene; the example gives "la nanmu poi 
terpa le ke'a xirma" meaning "Man Afraid Of His Horse".
