(or could be >maldratybangu as this idiom occurs in several languages) It could also be malspano for "querer decir", as I use it quite a lot. But is it really too idiomatic? Is there a better alternative? If we had a good gismu for "intend" then cusku-intend might give a better lujvo, but unfortunately we don't. In any case, I think the meaning of {skudji} is fairly litteral. Isn't it? co'o mi'e xorxes ________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com
