    • Logic Language Draft 4.1

    Use this thread to discuss the Logic Language Draft 4.1 page.

    "(quantifiers typically go with the axis = present tense marker)."

    I'm not sure what that entails, but in Lojban we have:

    ki: axis marker
    nau: speaker's (spatiotemporal) present marker
    ca: simultaneity marker

    {ca} often indicates simultaneity with both axis and speaker's
    present, but not always, and those two don't always coincide.

    pc:

    Sorry, that was about Bull, not Lojban. {ki} is closer to an axis than anything else (both readings). {ca} is strictly a 0-vector, which entails an axis, of course, and so can often be used as such a marker (or could, but for Lojban restrictions).

    The bit about quantifiers remains generally true, with exceptions easy to set out in most languages. The changes seem harder in Lojban because of the uncertainty about rtelative scopes
