As I said, I would rather that functions be predicates, as irt makes for lessconfusion and shows the role better: evaluating a new, but related, predicate rather than a comment on how the old predicate is evaluated.
We have some of those as gismu (mutce, milxe, dukse...), but I'm
not sure whether they can take the predicate as an argument.
Can we say for example:
le du'u le xirma cu bajra cu mutce le ka ce'u jetnu
That the horse is running is much in truth.
(Or perhaps in some other property?) Also there is {va'e}, which
we were in the wiki trying to figure out how it works.
{na} is a connective, so none of the categories outlined. It has fixed
rules
within any evaluation system (and those rules have to fall within a fairly
limited range: inversion, True-n, rotation left or right. I can't think of
any other plausible {na} at the moment.)
I'm not sure I see the difference between connective and function. (I understand that it can be called connective as an extension of true connectives that connect two things, but it can be confusing.) Can't a function have fixed rules? mu'o mi'e xorxes _________________________________________________________________MSN Photos is the easiest way to share and print your photos: http://photos.msn.com/support/worldwide.aspx
