That's fairly inaccurate. Rotation has nothing to with gravity, and falling /requires/ it. It is perfectly possible for something to move/rotate in a clockwise direction without falling. Every celestial body that isn't rotating counter-clockwise does it. (technically: the rotation of the Earth has nothing to do with the fact that the Earth is perpetually falling toward Sol.)
Okay, but as I've asserted many times over and over and over and over and over and over again, I'm the stupidest genius at Lojban central. I've already established this fact, so we don't need to reestablish it. I didn't actually make a claim, I just said some bullshit because I wanted to convey a meaning. I understand that rotation has nothing to do with gravity, so while I am the stupidest one here, you *really* don't need to explain third-grade physics to me. I didn't actually think that was a good way to say "clockwise".
I was unaware of {carna}. What goes in the x3?
Direction. x2 is the axis of rotation.
