        Although it will become out of topic, I have another suggestion
        related to the BPFK page of gadri.

        "Any term without an explicit outer quantifier is a constant"
        should be changed to
        "Any term without an explicit outer quantifier can be a constant",
        because an usual predicate logic has an axiom on a constant c
        that "F(c) {inaja} there is at least one (individual) x such
        that F(x)";


    That applies to singular constants, whereas unquantified terms need
    not be singular, but the version with plural quantifiers will still
    be valid.



Actually, there is no explicit plural qiantifier in Lojban, though
implicitly there are.

su'ore is the plural quantifier
