How about 'jinvi', 'djuno', 'krici', 'tugni', 'sarxe', etc. all
default to extensional, and then the intensional sense can be had with
a tanru or lujvo using 'pensi' (or maybe 'te sidbo'). If x both
extensionally believes that y and also thinks about or forms an idea
about y then x intensionally believes that y, no?
