Re: [lojban] Why {danfu, preti, spuda...} are in separate gismu?



What about {zi'o preti ko'a ko'e ko'i fi'o danfu ko'o}; it has the right places but in the wrong order.

Everyone understands the power of lojban when several sumti are connected within 

Currently I don't understand why the concepts of "question" and "answer" are not linked within one gismu.
danfu, preti, spuda... no solution.

danfu - x1 is the answer/response/solution/[reply] to question/problem x2.
preti - x1 (quoted text) is a question/query about subject x2 by questioner x3 to audience x4.
spuda - x1 answers/replies to/responds to person/object/event/situation/stimulus x2 with response x3.

I wish I could express something like
x1 questions someone x2 about x3 getting reply/answer x4

Robin told me that currently we can say "mi spuda le nu do te preti mi le se du'u preti spuda kei kei dei"which isn't exactly compact.
