far from final form and may contain duplicates, typos, and more serious
errors.

What this document IS:

This is a first draft of what will eventually be a much larger
English/Lojban dictionary file.

It contains 15604 English entries, one entry per line.

It contains all English entries so-far derived from the official version
of the gismu list being published simultaneously (8391).  This includes
some number of references to lujvo embedded in the published gismu list.
These entries are marked with a "*" in column 1.

It contains all English entries derived from a place structure keyword
list (6828) prepared by Colin Fine and by Nora and Bob LeChevalier and
being published simultaneously with this document.  These are in a
simpler, column-based, more abbreviated form than the gismu list
entries, and stand out strongly in the list due to white space.  These
entries have NOT been weeded at all, and may contain useless
information; their purpose is to ensure the most complete possible
coverage of English semantic space, and they thus cannot be properly
weeded until other English-order words have been completely added.
These entries are marked with a "&" in column 1.

It contains a number of entries (140) in the same form as gismu list
entries, but for lujvo derived from abstractions and other simple
transformations of the corresponding gismu, such that the place
structure closely resembles the original gismu.  These entries are
marked with a "%" in column 1.

It contains a small number (246) of miscellaneous and cross-reference
entries proposing metaphors for lujvo, and indicating other
English-entries where relevant meanings may be found.  These were added
ad hoc where it was recognized that the semantic coverage of the entries
omitted important meanings for the English keyword.  Because they are ad
hoc, they may be erroneous or misleading, but they may fill a user's
need for a meaning where the keyword does not appear in the gismu list
text with semantics corresponding to your desired meaning.  These
entries are marked with a "@" in column 1.

The above lists are merged together and sorted alphabetically.  Use
column 1 sorting to separate them if desired.

What this document is NOT

It is unformatted, with the intent of making it usable on a computer
without an appropriate word processor/database program, but it contains
marks and guides to aid LLG in later formatting.  Layout was based on
final formatting needs, and as a result there are some clumsinesses
associated with the file when limited to computer use.  Most significant
is that the gismu list-based entries use columns extending out as far as
around 900 with no wrapping, and the Lojban gismu from which the line
was derived appears at the RIGHTMOST end of that line.  However the
English word may not be best translated by the gismu, as when it is
derived from a lujvo proposal incorporated in the gismu list.  To find
these, you need to examine all occurrences of the English keyword in the
entry.  These occurrences are marked with the | symbol (which is easier
to spot on a computer screen than the ~ character that will be used in
the formatted document).

This document is not complete!

- There are several thousand entries to be generated from approximately
6000 lujvo in the files generated by Nick Nicholas, John Cowan, and Bob
LeChevalier.  This list may be up to 5 times (or more) the length of the
current file.  There were 20000 and 40000 entries in the raw list
generated in two different ways by John Cowan's key-word-in-context
(KWIC) program from the 3000 gismu in the list back in July, and we
aren't sure which will be used.  Nick Nicholas has several hundred lujvo
that have been used in Lojban text and discussion since the start of
1994, that have not been added to his list.  Whether they are included
will depend on his available time in the next couple of months.

- There are a large but unknown number of entries to be derived from the
cmavo list.  There are 6500 such entries automatically generated by John
Cowan's key-word-in-context (KWIC) program.  A random survey indicated
that more than half of these will be deleted before being incorporated
in this list.

- There are an unknown number of entries from the gismu list yet to be
generated.  These are associated with a small number of words that occur
with frequency greater than 20 in the text of the gismu list as of last
July.  The list of such words is given below, with the number of
occurrences in the gismu list.  Some (like "is" and "of" will obviously
generate very few or no English entries, while others may result in
several entries.  An ! indicates some words that seem especially likely
to generate a lot of entries.  You will find few if any entries in the
gismu-list-derived format (* lines) for these words, but you may find
entries based on the @ or & line formats.

This document is very "drafty".  It has not been spell-checked, nor have
duplicates been weeded (and there are expected to be a lot of duplicates
in the file, especially due to overlaps between & lines and * lines).

This document is subject to change/replacement/removal at any time
without notice.  Specifically, ANY change in a gismu place structure at
this point will require some amount of work, and there are open
technical issues that could affect a number place structures (but we
hope they will not).
