After initially having been "seduced" to give Lojban a try by Robin's lessons, I now am impressed by Nick's didactical skills and grateful - esp. for his last chapters. Just one remark to "Raising: jai" (Chapter 15): "An even more important instance when you want raising is in forming sumti out of this kind of gismu. A sumti means whatever goes into the x1 of its selbri. So if la djiotis. ninmu, then I can describe Jyoti as lo ninmu 'a woman'; if lemi karce xe klama le gusta fu mi, then I can describe lemi karce as lo xe karce 'a vehicle'." Shouldn't it be: "...le mi karce as to lo xe *klama* 'a vehicle'"? ki'e mi'e .aulun.
