But 2 of them, being useful to 3 dogs seems a bit unlikely. It is not the three dogs that are looking for something, the three dogs are somehow related to the seeking, but we can't tell how, they are in the {jai} place. Maybe they are hounds used by someone as instruments of their seeking? More complicated is what is being sought: at least one of the exactly two properties of being a unicorn box. I can't really imagine why would there be exactly two such properties. That is strange in itself. And why would anyone seek them with hounds is even more baffling. Do properties have a characteristic smell? >And >if you can figure out what "le'i ni broda" is for any broda, you are a >better (or stranger) Lojbanist than I. Well, if you know what an amount is, a set of them should be straightforward. I don't really understand {ni}, so I can't say what an amount of seeking is, but if you do it should be easy to figure a set of those. co'o mi'e xorxes ________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com
