Re: [lojban] Lojban's Biggest Problem or Why Still Nobody Speaks It

I don't understand all of them either, although I'm a native speaker. My wife would have understood all of them. I don't cook. I do recognize all of them as cooking words, although micro-cook is new to me, and coddle is new in this context.

Sounds good. Would x2 be the street and x3 the building?

"zbidaski" sounds better to me.

What are some other words that need translations?

today i wanted verbs for "to roast", "bake", "stew", "grill", "steam", "fry".
WordNet mentions these hyponyms of "to cook":

bake, brown, coddle, souse, microwave, micro-cook, zap, nuke, blanch, parboil, overcook, fricassee, stew, roast, braise, fry, grill, steam, pressure-cook, poach

Not sure I understand all of them.
