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: kei'au [jbovlaste]
        Type: experimental cmavo (YOU RISK BEING MISUNDERSTOOD IF YOU USE THIS WORD)
  Gloss Word: finite result set in the sense of "mekso operator, generalized"
  Gloss Word: finite sum set in the sense of "mekso operator, generalized"
  Gloss Word: finite union set in the sense of "mekso operator, generalized"
     selma'o: KEIhAU
  Definition: mekso operator: finite result set derived from/on set A
       with/due to operator/function B under ordering of application C
       Notes: Equivalent to: lo'i li zy du ca'e li pe'o se'au mau'au B zai'ai
       vei ma'o xy boi ny ve'o boi tau sy boi C ku poi ke'a cmaci
       xanri zi'e poi ke'a mleca li ci'i zo'u tau sy klesi A. Acts on
       an operator/function (B) and produces all finite results of
       that operator being used on any allowable number of elements of
       the set A without repetition within any given application; the
       results cannot be used as operands unless they are in A, but
       they are still in the result set. In order to overcome this
       limitation, iteration can be used (else, this definition may
       need to be modified). The result must be defined (and finite,
       obviously). Application of the operator on nothing (the
       elements of the empty set) is generically allowed and follows
       convention (for example, an empty sum may evaluate to 0).
       Differs from kei'ai. Use mau'au and zai'ai for quoting B.
       C will be specified explicitly (possibly elsewhere) and/or via
       zoi'ai.
