There's an = sign too. At some point, I knew what these meant, and
used them to generate a bunch of jbovlaste data; see what jbovlaste
has for this word; that might help.

I'm pretty sure the = just means the gismu places share one lujvo
place. There's a lot more of those.

I think you might have even been the one to give me this file, linking
to it on IRC at some point.

I tried querying jbovlaste, but couldn't figure out how to get it to
return words without any plus votes, which most of these lujvo are.

...

OK, I figured it out (didn't try very hard before), and I would bet
dollars to donuts that the & signals the start of post-noralujv
places. In that case, I can just ignore them for my purposes, which is
what I had done. So good.

Oh, now I see the ampersand. Very clever, hiding it like that.
