It CAN be done. In many different ways. I chose one way for mine. It probably wouldn't suit others.stevoOn Mon, Sep 1, 2014 at 10:56 AM, Gleki Arxokuna <gleki.is.my.name@gmail.com> wrote:
Semantical categorization of the universe can't be done since most concepts have more than one useful tag.Look at this attempt:It is not perfect and no attempt can be perfect.Also read this:2014-09-01 18:36 GMT+04:00 TR NS <transfire@gmail.com>:I was thinking about stevo's `CV` categorized gismu (still would like to see that, btw) and recently reading about the notion of taxonomic languages (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philosophical_language) when a neat idea struck me. If the the first three letters of a gismu related all such words --for the sake of argument let's say all fruit words started with `fru`, so then `frupa` might mean apple, `furba` banana, `furca` strawberry, etc. then my idea is that there could be a special cmavo that created a "group context", call it `xi'o... xi'u` and then one could say thins like:--fruxi'o pa .e ba .e ca [xi'u]Which would be the same asfrupa .e fruba .e frucaOf course this cmavo is a little odd b/c it works more like an inflection. And unfortunately Lojban doesn't have any sort of taxonomic vocabulary whatsoever. So it doesn't really fly. But I thought it was a neat idea anyway, so I thought I'd share..trans.
