Re: [lojban] baby words, sort of: catlu vs. zgana




I'm not sure what "intent scrutiny" means. I think "lanli" might be
better than catlu/zgana for "scrutinize".

"Intense scrutiny" could be "lo nu carmi lo ka lanli".

Reading your question as "intense scrutiny" but with the desire to use the "inspects" interpretation of catlu for baby-words purposes, I'd imagine {tsali catlu} or {denmi catlu} would make sense, though if there is not a particular emphasis on the type of sensing, {lanli fi lo nu zgana} or similar definitely makes more sense to me.

({.i ta'o}, if the {denmo} bothers you, it bothers me too -- I was looking for a word for "focus", but {denmo} is as close as I could get. Given, {denmo jundi} makes a lot of sense to me.)

mu'o mi'e .djandus.
