To improve the quality of results, jbovlaste search does not return words with insufficient votes. To qualify to be returned in search results, a proposed lujvo is required to have received a vote in favor in both directions: for instance, in English to Lojban and in Lojban to English.

In addition, due to it being a very technically hard problem, full text searching (that is, searching of definitions rather than just keywords) is not available at this time.

     selma'o: VUhU
  Definition: mekso operatory: prime mark append
       Notes: For ordered inputs (A, B, C), where A is a general mathematical
       object, B is an integer (normally nonnegative), and C is a
       nonnegative integer; appends B prime(s)/distinguishing marks of
       type C to A. Presumably objects that have the same symbol as A
       but different B and C values are mutual(ly) related/analogs,
       but are at least formally distinguishable. B and C each default
       to 1. In practice, tick marks are usually called prime marks
       (and probably will effectively/culturally have a value of C=1);
       other distinguishing features are employed usually once these
       are used, such as overbars, over-tildes/over-twiddles, dagger,
       asterisks, etc. For a fixed C, this operator forms a series in
       B for each A. The meaning is context-specific. B = 0 iff C = 0;
       if A in unprimed (lacks any distinguishing marks), then B = 0;
       thus all mathematical objects have this operator implicitly
       attached to them with the value of 0 for the second and third
       argumentsize (note that this is not the default value for these
       arguments when this operator is explicitly mentioned). It is
       possible therefore to reference both primed and unprimed
       objects of form A simultaneously via reference to, for example,
       (1±1)/2 for the value for B and/or C (employing the setting of
       defaulting to the value of 1 as appropriate).
