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.

From Lojban to English :

        Word: datnrzbaselpla [jbovlaste]
        Type: fu'ivla
  Gloss Word: makefile in the sense of "build process automation"
  Definition: x1 is a makefile designed to produce output files / data /
       event x2 from rules x3.
       Notes: Doesn't refer only the makefiles for GNU make, but also to any
       such similar files intended to automate the building process.
       Technically and usually, makefiles just run commands which in
       turn are what create the output, but the x2 allows us to skip
       the extra verbosity by specifying the output data directly. If
       output data is irrelevant, i.e. the makefile runs commands
       which have no real output, then an event can be used to specify
       the result of the makefile. See also zbaplrjavni for how to
       fill the x3.

    2. makefile rule
