Re: [lojban] Ancient Greek, free word order and the same FA two times in a bridi

Ancient Greek and Russian have free word order. It means that instead of "Yesterday I saw a big dog" you can literally say "Big yesterday saw dog I" due to case markers.

Lojban currently can't split sumti apart.

{mi viska lo barda gerku} = {fe lo barda ku viska fe lo gerku fa mi}?

Therefore I suggest that if we have the same FA more than once in a bridi it means that we can join them back with {je}. So
{fe lo barda viska fe lo gerku fa mi} = {mi viska lo barda je gerku}.
If you need to use joi, fa'u, jo'u or other connectives such partitioning is not possible.

pei?

I don't like using logical connectives for this. How about no'u?

fe lo barda fa mi viska fe lo gerku
=
mi viska lo barda no'u lo gerku
"I saw something big, which is a dog."

mu'o mi'e la selpa'i
