Thank you. > >pu nu'i re lo djedi mi penmi loi pendo I would have said: {za lo djedi be li re mi pu penmi loi pendo}. I know that the book proposes the use of termsets for this, but I find it too confusing, I'm not even sure of the grammar of termsets, so I can't tell if your sentence is correct. Also {re lo djedi} is not strictly a period of two days duration, but two separate periods of one day. It would mean that you met on two occasions. >.i le girzu fi ze lo prenu .e re lo prenu ba jorne le >gy. {le gy} is incorrect, it should be just {gy}. Also, you have {ze lo prenu e re lo prenu} filling the x3 place of {jorne}. You want something like {le girzu cu zemei ije re prenu ba jorne gy} >.i puki mi tavla fi le citri nu la lojban. le citri be la lojban >.e ba fe mi'a nunsnu fi {ije} instead of {e}, which is only for joining sumti. >le se smadi nu la sapir,uorf. ku {le se smadi be la sapir,uorf}, {ku} not needed. >je loi mupli be le nu la lojban. >xamgu mau le glibau {e} instead of {je}. {la lojban xamgu mau le glibau} means "Lojban is good with English as more". You mean something like {la lojban cu xagmau le glibau}. co'o mi'e xorxes _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.
