My fellow jbobre, Have you visited the land where Lojban is spoken? It's called samxarmuj, meaning "computerized imaginary universe". It's a text-based world...
I found an online spaced-repitition flashcard learning site and, for a friend, put all the basic Lojban vocabulary on there, ordered by frequency of usage, in...
(If you think you've seen this before, it's because you have; the person who tried to fill this role didn't work out.) The BPFK is the committee charged with...
Heard on IRC: I read {fuzme} as "x1 is tasked with/supposed to bring about x2 (according to authority x3)" (think baupla fuzykamni), not "x1 is the one who...
... I think it can't just be "x1 is the one who actually did x2", because x2 need not be in the past, and besides you can actually do things without being...
... An excellent description of the distinction, and it also highlights that the x3 of fuzme is an authority requiring such an answer, whereas the x3 of bilga...
... The position has been filled; thanks to the 3 people who replied. -Robin -- Lojban Reason #17: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buffalo_buffalo Proud Supporter...
Many of you might be interested in this, found on Slashdot. Mathematical analysis of English texts over the past several hundred years yielded a predictive...
... Presumably {malfuzme} would mean something closer to "guilty" than to "blamed". If you are blamed but innocent, you would not be {malfuzme}, only accused...
... Indeed. I'm having considerable success in convincing people to use a regular past tense of "u". Past tense of "think" is "thunk", of "click" is "cluck" ...
Hi all, I have a suggestion. I think adoption of Lojban could be greatly accelerated with specifically audio oriented lessons. Lessons where the learner does...
The topic about lojban skills scoring is raised here and there. I believe that lojban is different from any other language in at least one important feature:...
A while ago I did a draft translation of the first half of the chapter "On giving" from "The Prophet". That chapter features several instances of the idiomatic...

Everyone, I have been presenting arguments over the last week or so first to get an audience and then to present what I feel are real problems with Lojban's ...
Hello, I am interested in putting together a census form on some Lojban associated website that would allow for Lojbanistanis to submit anonymous information ...

Does the PEG currently use left recursive definitions? If not, would it be helpful if it could? For instance. Example input: x ? x : x To parse this, we could...
... The *only* place in Lojban that is unavoidably left-recursive is the RPN mekso stuff. ... If you can show me how to fix the RPN productions in my PEG, I'd ...

... Left associativity is handled by rules such as: selbri-3 <- selbri-4+ or: sumti-2 <- sumti-3 (joik-ek sumti-3)* so it is left implicit. ... It would be...
