vensa | ma jdima lonu curmi doi tomoj |
tomoj | is there a vague PA |
selckiku | i don't mind "malgli", that's a fine way to say it, it just makes me wonder |
vensa | selckiku: the bomb is about to go off :) tomoj: ji'i |
selckiku | huh, a vague pa, that's a cool idea, there isn't is there?? |
tomoj | the thing is, I don't even know the number nor whether it's typical |
vensa | you can use {za'u |
}
tomoj | I just know it's in the hundreds |
vensa | or {su'o |
}
selckiku | "ji'i" makes any PA a little vaguer, you can't use it on its own can you? |
vensa | so {za'u panono |
}
tomoj | so I was thinking "XX no no" |
vensa | selckiku: y not? |
selckiku | i dunno, i'd just never seen it |
tomoj | well.. |
selckiku | what selma'o is zo ji'i anyway zo ji'i cmavo ma |
tomoj | 10000 is {za'u pa no no}, isn't it? |
valsi | ji'i = digit/number: approximately (default the typical value in this context) (number). |
vensa | tomoj: you can try {xo paunai no no |
}
tomoj | it's PA |
selckiku | ok then, i guess {li ji'i} is a pretty vague number then |
vensa | selckiku: is {za'u panono} = "more than one hunderd" or "10000"? |
valsi | za'u = digit/number: greater than. |
selckiku | 10000 is more than 100, sure |
vensa | yeah but what is the meaning of the lojban? oh wait nm. tomoj wasnt arguing with me I was including "10000" as a referent of {za'u panono |
}
selckiku | it's a somewhat unusual meaning of za'upanono but it depends on the context |
tomoj | I want X00 where X is a single digit 1-9 |
vensa | doi tomoj no'i xu do kakne lonu se pendo lo mlatu poi bartu tomoj: then you need a regex :P |
tomoj | hmm, is there enough cmavo space open to translate regex into lojban? :) |
valsi | boxfo = x1 is a sheet/foil/blanket [2-dimensional shape/form flexible in 3 dimensions] of material x2. no'o = digit/number: typical/average value. |
selckiku | the cmavo space is rather busy, really |
vensa | how about {no'o no no}? if anything, it sounds hilarious |
