Alt title: distinguishing between variables and metavariables.

If I say, in English "Surely you don't mean x.", it is clear (from context) that "x" is a metavariable, standing in for a potential _expression_, and not a variable bound to an actual _expression_.

Any suggestions on how to model that distinction in lojban?
