Not really. We had utterance in there also equivalent to TLI's grammar, but when we added in the grammar of strings and chains of utterances (paragraphs and larger chunks, along with parentheticals), it seemed less appropriate (it also helped us in the copyright situation to use different words where it made sense to do so). > maybe not, since lojban uses "text" instead. Text is something larger than a TLI utterance which I think corresponds to a subset of our "paragraph" rules. lojbab -- lojbab lojbab@lojban.org Bob LeChevalier, President, The Logical Language Group, Inc. 2904 Beau Lane, Fairfax VA 22031-1303 USA 703-385-0273 Artificial language Loglan/Lojban: http://www.lojban.org
