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.


1 definition found
From Lojban to English :

        Word: glevli [jbovlaste]
        Type: lujvo
  Gloss Word: sexual power in the sense of "over another"
  Gloss Word: sexual power over another
  Definition: x1 has the power to bring about sexual activity/event x2 with
       x3 under conditions x4; x1 is sexually powerful in aspect x2
       Notes: Mutual symmetry between g1 and g2 is partially lost since only
       g1 is necessarily endowed with sexual power (even though the
       act of sex is mutually symmetric between them). Generalized
       sexual power (as in: self-empowerment) should have x3 erased or
       gleborsezvli; this word implies have sexual power over
       another (upon/over whom some sort of sexual power may be
       exercised).
