Re: [lojban] Questions? not hard..

Morphological plurals are NOT optional in Lojban; they are not even (strictly speaking) possible.  You could make plural predicates (presumably pluralizing the first argument) by adding  {zma, mau} maybe -- or the combinative form of some numerical operator.  But why, when syntactic plurals (when needed at all) are so easy (any of them).  The other list is too odd to comment on, except to ask what would count as not synonyms if they are the common or gloss words.  "he/she/it" are English specific, and "our" probably is too; "because/for/be/has" are some ambiguous/vague as to be useless as guides to what you want and the others are just gismu.
I assume I have missed your point here.

1- how to derive plural from singular word by morphology in lojban? I know that optional but I want it.

 

2- what is the gloss word or the most common word -but not synonyms- for each of

 

he:             she:                it:              our:                 up:             down:       right -direction-:              left  -direction-:                because:                  for:             be:      has:   

 

if any another quistions occur at me I will ask, just will not occur about this type.
