Lujvo list analysis

[Nick Nicholas <nsn@MULLIAN.EE.MU.OZ.AU>]

Folks,

a fair while ago, Lojbab handed me the list of all lujvo that have appeared
in text in computer up to mid March. I have today come up with place
structures for 1461 of them, discarding about 1000 of them as being too
specific to enter into a dictionary (a lot of Helsem's compounds, for
example), and I will now work on incorporating later lujvo into the list;
the first text to be considered will be Colin's Quine text. I haven't been
*explicitly* dikyjvo-ist, since dikyjvo have never been formulated explicitly
enough for any but the first place in a lujvo. Rather, I have picked out
places from amongst those of the component gismu, ordering them with some
principles of regularity, and eliminating for reasons of both redundancy
and semantics (thus a Treasury is a {sorcu}, but without a place for
"container"; a battery is a {sorcu}, but without a place for "location";
a {tergu'i} need not have a {gusni} or a {se gusni} in its definition).
I have found that I've matched Lojbab's derived place structures, where these
have appeared, pleasingly often.

The list is available to anyone who wants it, for review or pillory; and now
is also a good time to get your lujvo proposals out, since this work is
intended for the Lojban protodictionary. A sample of the work follows: the
letters and numbers identify places of the component gismu. For example:

ba'ispe                 fianc'e: s1 s2

has as its first place the first place of {speni}, and as it's second the
seconf place of {speni}: x1 is the fianc'e of x2.
