[lojban] "The beautiful little dancer" in Lojban

[Yannis Haralambous <yannis1962@gmail.com>]

dear Lojban speakers,

I'm writing a book on Natural Language Processing, in which I frequently refer to Lojban.

At some point I'm comparing the number of morphological markers in various languages: I take the sentence “The beautiful little dancer” (meaning a female dancer) and I count the feminine-specific morphemes, for example in French: l*a* be*lle* petit*e* danseu*se* (four non-empty morphemes), in German d*ie* schöne kleine Tänzer*in* (two morphemes), etc.

In order to give a Lojban example, could you please provide me with the sentence translated into Lojban, twice: first meaning a male dancer and then meaning a female dancer (if there are any differences).

Thank you very much in advance,

Seasons' greetings

Yannis
