different between brivla vs cmavo
brivla
English
Etymology
Borrowed from Lojban brivla.
Pronunciation
- Hyphenation: briv?la
Noun
brivla (plural brivla)
- (Lojban grammar) A Lojban predicate word. Specifically, a word which may be used to express a selbri relation (a statement of truth of one kind or another) between a number of arguments. Gismu, lujvo and fu'ivla are all brivla.
- Brivla are "content words", i.e., categorematic. When acting as selbri they are roughly comparable to verbs (or adjectives (or even nouns), if the selbri's arity is one), and when acting as sumti (e.g., due to being prefixed with "le") they are comparable to nouns. If a brivla modifies another one (thereby forming a "tanru"), the modifying brivla would be comparable to an adverb or adjective (*), depending on whether the modified brivla is acting as selbri or sumti, respectively. // Footnote: (*) - the modifying brivla could instead be comparable, in some cases, to the modified brivla's predicate.
- 1997, John W. Cowan, The Complete Lojban Language ?ISBN [1]
- They often have no semantic meaning in themselves, though they may affect the semantics of brivla to which they are attached.
- a. 2001, Richard Curnow [2]

- a. 2003, Pierre Abbat [3] [4]
- Currently, it lexes cmene, cmavo, and brivla, and checkes [sic] cmene and cmavo for validity, but does not do full validity checking of brivla.
