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: nacmecrai [jbovlaste]
        Type: lujvo
  Gloss Word: minimum in the sense of "min"
  Gloss Word: least number
  Gloss Word: least element
  Definition: x1 (number) is the least element/minimum of the set (of
       numbers) x2 under (partial) ordering x3
       Notes: x1 must be a set. If this word is being used as a function
       ($min$), common but lazy mathematical practice allows for
       speaking of "the minimum of a function" (including sequences)
       or to constrain the minimum with respect to certain variables,
       but these constraints can and properly ought to be incorporated
       into the definition of the set of which the minimum is being
       taken. This word is not limited to purely mathematical usage
       and the set can be defined loosely (such as in "the minimum
       legally acceptable wage" wherein the set x2 is understood to be
       the set of all legally acceptable wages). The minimum x1 must
       belong to set x2; compare with:  zmaraimecna'u (infimum). See
       also: nacyzmarai.
