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.

       Notes: jirnytabra refers generally to the common horn (brass
       instrument). "..the instrument is often informally known as the
       French horn. However, this is technically incorrect since the
       instrument is not French in origin, but German. Therefore, the
       International Horn Society has recommended since 1971 that the
       instrument be simply called the horn." (wikipedia). Also
