+Here are the default quantifiers for various kinds of sumti. See [[the Book|the Book]], chapter 6.
-The words mean literally "dark room", but although a darkroom is a dark room, it is not a camera obscura.

-''kacma'': x1 is a camera/photographic equipment recording illumination type x2 images to media x3
+;lo:su'o lo ro -- at least one of all of those which really are
-A camera obscura is a camera which, by direct optical means, displays its image rather than recording it. One translation is ''kacma fi noda'' (though some people might suppose you'd left your film at home).
+;la:ro la su'o -- all of the at least one named
-*That should be ''kacma fi zi'o''; anything (such as a tree) which has nothing to record images on ''kacma fi noda''. --[[jbocre: Pierre Abbat|phma]]
+;lei:pisu'o lei su'o -- some part of the mass of the at-least-one described as
-** The [[jbocre: discussion of kacma fi noda|discussion of kacma fi noda]] became somewhat extended.
-* The ''[[jbocre: lujvo|lujvo]]'' for ''kacma fi zi'o'' is ''zilcibykacma''
+;loi:pisu'o loi ro -- some part of the mass of all those that really are
-We don't need to make up Lojban words to exactly match English words. A camera obscura where you walk in and the image is projected on a wall could be a ''kumfa kacma'' "room camera" or a ''kacma je kumfa'' "camera and room". The kind used by artists to help in sketching could be a "drawing aid", and so on. There are many ways to say any given thing; choose one that says what you want.
+;lai:pisu'o lai su'o -- some part of the mass of the at-least-one named
-''mi'e [[jbocre: jezrax|jezrax]]''
