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: gu'irnilcarmrmagnitu [jbovlaste]
        Type: fu'ivla
  Gloss Word: magnitude in the sense of "brightness"
  Definition: x1 is emitted/reflected light that measures to be x2 magnitudes
       in luminous brightness, on scale (si'o)/using reference
       value/under system/according to definition x3, in logarithmic
       base x4 (default: decimal (10))
       Notes: Wavelength is specified in x1; it is improper to submit an
       object as the sumti for x1. The type of magnitude (absolute,
       apparent, etc.) must be specified by tanru or lujvo. x2 must be
       a pure number (dimensionless). x3 should specify a reference
       emission and the associated reference value in magnitudes, the
       meaning of a change by 1 magnitude, and the direction of
       increasing brightness (traditionally: toward negative
       infinity); magnitude is defined for all real numbers. See also:
       cmagnitude.
