*** looking for "x1 of" - most deletable English/Lojban Dictionary - First draft official publication 26 September 1994 Copyright 1994, The Logical Language Group, Inc. Bob LeChevalier, President lojbab@access.digex.net 2904 Beau Lane, Fairfax VA 22031-1303 USA 703-385-0273 Posted for comment and reference only. Please do not distribute without verifying that this is the latest version available. This version is 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. 1491 is 919 of 865 a 438 in 338 to 305 also 291 the 267 by 224 for 173 from 166 with 126 an 121 at 111 not 110!property 109!quantity 107!material 102 be 99 or 95!aspect 95!standard 91!made 91 on 91!species 86 and 81!body 81!object 79 about 73!part 66!contains 66 may 65!culture 59 as 59!form 56!under 52!reflects 51!conditions 50 that 49!metaphor 48!nationality 46!event 46!source 45!dimension 44!shape 42 are 40!composition 39 including 39!subject 38!language 37!breed 35!location 33!commodity 33!state 32 non 31 this 30 into 30!type 30 which 29!strain 28!function 28!person 27!set 26 but 26!need 26!specific 25!audience 25!frame 25 has 25!necessarily 25!purpose 25!reference 25!surface 24 agentive 24!action 24!locus 23!time 22!among 22!place 22!over 22!system 21!direction 21!activity 21!process 21!force 20!properties 20!objects 20!means 20!point 20!used 20!tool 20!sumti 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). *+, x1 is a mathematical sum/result/total of x2 |/increased by x3 /:/ /=/ sumji (suj) *-est, x1 is superlative in property x2 (ka), the x3 extreme (ka;
