Re: [lojban] ka'e/kakne & mapti/sarxe

Just to be sure what I meant is clear. My point is that the interpretation of

 {ko'a kakne lo nu broda}

is that {ko'a} is such that {lo nu broda} can be true (regardless if
it will eventually become true or not).

So {mi kakne lo nu do citka lo plise} (to me) means that I'm able to
have you eating an apple. Either because I bought it for you, or
because I shoved it down to your throat, or I threatened you that you
won't go outside playing with your friends if you don't finish that
damned apple.

This seems (to me) the most logical interpretation to assign to {kakne}.

If nobody things that my interpretation is acceptable, I will support
the interpretation from xorxes.

If nobody cares enough for one or the other, I suspect we'll leave it
undetermined as it is now.
