No, Loglan had cases, similar to BAI, but not quite the same. For
example you'd have a case tag that tagged "recipient" or "agent". So
with dunda, you could use the recipient tag to mark the recipient
instead of having to put it in dunda3. The difference is that these
tags were much less specific and there were only a bit over 10 of
these so more overlap occured.

Lojban does have adpositions (sumtcita). All members of BAI
are prepositions,
and tense markers can also be used as prepositions.

What does he mean?
I assumed here he WAS talking about BAI, but I could
be wrong.
