Re: [lojban] Re: [lojban-beginners] APE: Lojban haiku



As far as my haiku is concerned, the "old" interpretation and the "IRC" interpretation are near enough in meaning that I don't really feel it needs changing, however:
 
...They're not at all close in meaning, in fact they're closer to being opposites than to being the same. The old {broda co'a lo nu brode} has broda happening when brode begins; the new one has broda beginning when brode is happening. A trivial example of the difference is if {lo nu brode} lasts forever in a universe where "forever" extends infinitely in both directions, then the new version is just {co'a broda} (every event is simultaneous with an event that lasts forever), while the old version is nonsensical.

So how does the IRC interpretation deal with {ZAhO lo broda ku ... [cu] ZAhO brode}?
In what sense? What semantics does it assign it, or how does it achieve the old semantics of that statement? (I assume you dropped a {nu}).

Here's a possible fix, though it's already quite different from the original, plus I really don't like the -cfa-:

lo nunvesycfa
cu jai co'a rulba'o
ja'e lo nunmle

I wouldn't call that a fix. If anything, it's worse than the original, IMO.
