__Whether ''broda brode'' equals ''brode le broda''__ * From English usage, those ''gismu'' for ''broda'' that resemble nouns, work better at this than those ''gismu'' that resemble adjectives; and the ones that resemble verbs (or even prepositions), are most difficult of all to interpret... * Not always: ''ko'a blanu zdani .i ko'a zdani .ije blanu ni'o ko'e blanu zdani .i ko'e zdani le blanu'' Who is to say what ''((blanu zdani))'' means to the sayer? This is, surprisingly, part of why tanru are so great - they can be used more artistically, as when the lujvo ''blazda'' becomes accepted as one it is forever lost for the other, but the tanru never is. - la ((kreig.daniyl.)) * ''brode lenu broda'' and ''brode le broda'' can both be __indicated__ by ''broda brode'' but ''broda brode'' suggests the latter much more directly than the former. __((''Gismu'' Agentive And Non-Agentive))__ __Whether a ((kenning)) can be adequately Lojbanized by ''mela broda brode'', ''broda brode'', or ''fu'epe'a broda brode fu'o''__ __Whether to use ''broda brode'' or ''brode broda'' or even ''broda je brode''.__ * The meaning of "adjective + noun" I would use in English is no guide. What I am looking for in the ''lobyselsku'' is place structure... __Whether "verbal" expressions like ''troci co'' are equivalent to ''troci lenu'' or if not, which is superior.__ *Poems from ''la ((ziryroi))'' to be updated: **''((le puzi cerni))'' **''((skadji))''; 2001 version ''((skanunydji))'' **''((bangu))'' **''((le firgau pu'u selvi'u))'' **''((loika zvati))''; ((2002 version of ''loika zvati'')) **''((mela sapir .uorf.))'' **''((leka sarcu))'' **''((le te pemci .e le se binxo))'' **''((xaxaxa klakydirgo))'' **''((le ca selru'a jicmu))'' **''((lo nalrei))'' **''((mi fapro jinvi))'' **''((ranmi))'' **''((xagji pemci))'' **''((selcru))'' __((My use of ''si'o'' And whether it makes any sense))__
