Appendix:Lojban/li

Lojban edit

Particle edit

li

  1. indicates that the next word is a number or mathematical expression used as a sumti

Usage notes edit

  • A sumti phrase begun with li ends with the elidable terminator lo'o unless no ambiguity results (in which case the terminator is elided).
  • The numerals following the li end with the elidable terminator boi (unless no ambiguity results (in which case the terminator is elided)).
  • In some instances, lo'o and boi may be interchangeable, yielding parsings with essentially the same structure.
