Why is it that "lo ro djedi" means "everyday" and "lo ro moi djedi" means "the last day"? How is "every" related to "last"?
Uhhh...Everyday = plain, ordinary, unremarkable.Every day = each dayClarify your meaning, then we'll clarify ours.

It MAY be that who did it tried to convert ro into a number. However I guess that, if it worked would refer to the infinitely last day. Why not pavprucabydei ?
>>1418Well, "ro" is a numeral in Lojban, equivalent to "2" or "7" or "te'o". Lojban extends the cardinal (group of N members) vs ordinal (the Nth member) distinction to all numerals, so one can speak about "2mei" (a pair; a group of 2 things) and "romei" (a complete group; a group of N things, where N = the total number of things), and one can speak about "2moi" (the 2nd thing, the Nth thing where N = 2) and "romoi" (the "every-th" thing, the Nth thing, where N = the total number of things). One can use any word in PA in this way, so one can speak about the "few-th" thing ("so'umoi", the Nth thing, where N = a small number), or the "enough-th" thing ("raumoi", the Nth thing, where N = the number of things which is enough). I hope this helps.
