What is the Lojban equivalent of the Esperanto "triobla"?

>> No.1392  

... and "kvarope", "po kvin"?

>> No.1393  

mi re roi klama lo xotli - i go to the hotel twice

i mi no roi citka lo kalci - i never ate shit

>> No.1394

No. Not that "times". I'm talking about multiplication as in "three times bigger", but without the content word ("bigger").

"triobla" = "three times" = ? (Lojban)

"kvarope" = "in four pairs / four together" = ? (Lojban)

"po kvin" = "five apiece" = ? (Lojban)

I wonder if you could do something with VEhA as like what is done in ZAhO*. Ie make ve'u, somehow, mean twice larger region of space. (Maybe PA4 it?)

I don't know Esperanto very well, but I guess what you're talking about can be said in Lojban with "klani", e.g., "lo klani be li ci" or "lo ciblai". However, I don't know what the differences between "triobla", "kvarope", and "po kvin" are, aside from the different numbers.

"kvaropo" = "lo vo mei" = "a foursome"
"kvarope" would be "vo mei" used as a modifier, or perhaps "fi'o vo mei", depending on the context.

"po kvin" is just "mu" under the scope of another quantifier, normally "ro". There is no special word to do this in Lojban, you just have to put the quantifiers in the desired order.

"triobla" is more tricky. Perhaps "me li pi'i ci" would work, but we would need a full sentence to see how to fit it in.

And you forgot: "sesono" = "fi'u xa".
