{zdile} is confusingly glossed (was Re: [lojban] Baby word: silly)

[Robin Lee Powell <rlpowell@digitalkingdom.org>]

Definitely not; {zdile} is *entertain*.  The keyword just sucks ass;
read the whole definition:

  zdile -zdi- gismu
  
  x1 (abstract) is amusing/entertaining to x2 in property/aspect x3;
  x3 is what amuses x2 about x1.
  
  Also: x1 occupies x2 pleasantly; x1 is fun for x2; x2 is amused by
  x1; x2 has fun (at) doing x1; x1 is an amusement/entertainment/game
  for x2. See also cinri, panka, xajmi for funny, kelci.

It's glossed as "amusing" or so, but it means it like "amusement
park"; entertaining diversion. I just noticed this a few weeks ago.
"amusing" like "funny" is {xajmi}
