http://www.animal.helsinki.fi/lojftp/reference-grammar/chap5.html#s16 lists the 40 cases that Lojban handles, with English glosses for each, sometimes rough ones. Due to the associativity of "and", not all 40 cases are really distinct, but if "and" were to be replaced with "if and only if" or the like, they would be. -- John Cowan http://www.ccil.org/~cowan cowan@ccil.org You tollerday donsk?
