Re: TECH: (attention Ivan!) demonstrative predicate cmavo needed?

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

To Logical Language Group respond I thus:

#The word I was looking for was a predicate demonstrative.  Adjectively in
#English, it is "that kind of", adverbially: "thusly, that way".  Russian has a
# richer
#use that I haven't exactly mastered yet, but the various words involved include
#tak/takzhe (adverbs, I guess I would call them) and takoi (adjective, having
#several other forms through declension).

Whatever would be wrong with just [ne] ta'i la'edi'u? And I have my doubts
you could fit something as vague like this comfortably into Lojban grammar.
Don't worry about this: this is not a hole Lojban qua Lojban *should* be
filling...
