Re: [lojban] What can you do with Lojban that you can't do with English?

[Jonathan Jones <eyeonus@gmail.com>]

Well, an extremely simple example of something Lojban can do and English can't, is to refer to a third person in a gender-neutral fashion:

ta nelci lo ta gerku

vs.

S/he likes his/her dog.

I'm trying to find some info on what the features of Lojban are, so
far I've only found very few confusing and vague statements about the
language.

Could someone tell me what Lojban can do that English cannot and show
an example so it's easy for me to understand?

Thanks,
Alex.
