Re: [lojban] Update on gadri Proposal
Yes, either the {lo} should be on the other side of the {mu} or omitted
altogether.

Subject: [lojban] Update on gadri Proposal
Now that the formal definition of {PA broda} has been updated in the
gadri Proposal, there are other parts of it that need to be adjusted.
The first paragraph, defining {lo}, still says
"
When an outer quantifier is used without an inner quantifier, lo can be omitted.
"
I think this should be replaced by an exemplified explanation of the differences
between {PA broda} and {PA lo broda}.
Maybe some of the examples should be reviewed as well.
I find the parenthesised {lo} in the following particularly misleading.
"
o'i mu (lo) xagji sofybakni cu zvati le purdi
Caution! There are five hungry Soviet cows in the garden.
"
mu'o
