Re: [lojban] «se goi»

Yes, it was once discussed and never got into the wiki. If you have time plase make an article so that se goi is in the title with possibly redirects from {se po} into it.

The problem with «goi» is that it is ambiguous—one can not know which way the assignment goes.
I was thinking about a nice solution, and found one. Basically, «goi» assigns the left sumti to the right one. If one wants to do it the other way around, he says «se goi». For example:
  • ko'a goi ko'e – it-1, from now on referred to as it-2;
  • la .alis. se goi ti – Alice, which from now on refers to this thing here.
Actually, this syntax can work with any other GOI! I will throw more examples at you:
  • lo vi ninmu se po lo junla – this woman here owning a watch («po»: owned by..., «se po»: owning...);
  • lo vi nanmu se po'e lo panzi – this man here having a child («po'e»: intrinsic property of..., «se po'e»: owning intrinsically...).
What do you think?
