What does ".abu melbi" mean? Is ".abu" the beautiful letter of "a" or a beautiful non-letter?

>> No.1646  

Latter, due to http://dag.github.com/cll/17/9/
If you want to say the former, you can always quote the lefru with {me'o}, as mentioned in http://dag.github.com/cll/17/10/:

{me'o .abu [cu] melbi}

>> No.1647  

NB what {me'o} quotes {.abu} as a mex and makes it into a sumti representing that mex itself (as opposed to {li .abu}, which is a sumti representing the value of "a"), as described in http://dag.github.com/cll/18/19/

So the literal meaning would be

> "a" is the beautiful [mex]

But http://dag.github.com/cll/17/10/ mentions that this will be interpreted as

> "a" is the beautiful [letteral]

, as a special case.

".abu", on the other hand, is not a letteral at all, but is a word. (Okay, it IS also the letteral, referenced by lerfu-string "denpa bu.abuby.ubu"). You can say ".abu is a beautiful [word]" quoting it with, for instance, {zo}.
