what does x3 refer to? The one who has shut the door?
Maybe I don't understand, just because of english isn't my native tongue.

The definition is not well written, but I think that x3 is that which is prevented from passing. For example, a screen door, or a door with a dog-door set in it, would allow air, or dogs, through even if closed to humans; ganlo fi lo remna. Stretching a bit for an inverse example: an airlock (as a whole, not the doors that make it up) ganlo fi lo litki .enai lo remna.

I agree to kpreid. In fact, la jbofi'e says: ------ [1(2[terga'o1 (blocked thing(s)) :] ti this here)2 [is, does] «3terga'o being blocked»3]1 .i `.' [4(5[selga'o1 (inaccessible thing(s)) :] ta that there)5 [is, does] «6selga'o being inaccessible»6]4 .i `.'

Moreover, the note of the defintion of ganlo says that "a semi-permeable membrane" is also suitable to ganlo. In such a case, x3 of ganlo/kalri in the meaning above is very useful. For example: lo vi boxfo ti kalri lo vacri gi'e ganlo lo djacu That is to say, as long as "a semi-permeable membrane" is said to be a kind of ganlo, lo pagre is more important than lo ve pagre for general use of ganlo. From these points of view, I will "correct" the definitions of ganlo and kalri in lojban and some other languages. If you don't agree with la jbofi'e, kpreid and me, just vote down and add another definition.

If you don't agree with la > jbofi'e, kpreid and me, just vote down and add another definition. Thank you. I used to understand it incorrectly. Russian definitions of kalri and ganlo changed. I hope you'll change the definition in French facile in the google spreadsheet.
