Re: [lojban] Re: lujvo for "spelling"? (was Re: [lojban-beginners] How do you write "Eyjafjallajökull"? (a sentence from tatoeba))



That definition has 0 votes and therefore doesn't count.

Quoting a previous message in this thread:

{vlale'u} doesn't seem useful, but both {vlakemlerpoi} and {lerpoi} do.
My proposed definitions of lerpoi and vlakemlerpoi:

#1a .i lo ka lerpoi cu ka ce'u noi fa'ugi lu'a ke'a gi lu'o ke'a lerfu
ce'u fa'u zi'o zi'o fa'u ce'u cu porsi zi'o zi'o
"x1 is a character string (sequence of letters) in character set x2
representing x3."
porsi2 and porsi3 seem irrelevant. The fa'u-hackage is required,
because individually the letters-digits-symbols are a part of the
character set, but as a sequence or mass, aren't. However,
individually, they don't represent anything, but as a mass, they do.
The definition can be given with a termset rather than the non-logical
connective {fa'u}:
#1b .i lo ka lerpoi cu ka ce'u noi nu'i ge lu'a ke'a ce'u zi'o nu'u gi
lu'o ke'a zi'o ce'u lerfu cu porsi zi'o zi'o

(for simplicity's sake, I'm not going to give the full gismu-deep
structure of vlakemlerpoi)
#2 .i lo ka vlakemlerpoi cu ka ce'u lerpoi ce'u ce'u noi ke'a valsi ce'u ce'u
"x1 is a string in character set x3 representing word x3 meaning x4 in
language x5."
or "x1 is the spelling of x3."

jbovlaste's definition for lerpoi doesn't seem to have a place for the
word formed by the sequence of letters. I have to repeat iesk's question.
