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: datro [jbovlaste]
        Type: experimental gismu (YOU RISK BEING MISUNDERSTOOD IF YOU USE THIS WORD)
  Gloss Word: date
  Gloss Word: dated
  Gloss Word: happen in the sense of "on a day"
  Definition: x1 (event) is dated/pertaining to day/occurring on day x2 of
       month x3 of year x4 in calendar x5
       Notes: Moved from datru due to conflict with tatru. We felt that
       detri just didn't work as a culturally-independent date
       system. The use of pi'e or joi as date mechanisms was
       insufficient and having the date components built into the
       place structure seems far more elegant. (Cf. masti, djedi,
       nanca, nu, fasnu, purci, balvi, jeftu)
  Place Keywords:
    1. event
    2. day in the sense of "on day"
    3. month in the sense of "of month"
    4. year in the sense of "of year"
    5. calendar in the sense of "date chart"
