Although I proposed dV, I see now that it needn't have a bound V that binds a V within its complement. It could just be a single invariant particle equivalent to Lojban "co'e voi".

I guess you're right, because the targeted variable would be already explicit in the complement.  If the particle were say nu'a, then how would we definite it?  Maybe "nu'i F" = "lo nnvrdklo hoko F" meaning "in some nonveridical sense, F"?
