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: nonsmitenfa [jbovlaste]
        Type: lujvo
  Gloss Word: nilpotent in the sense of "ring theory"
  Definition: $x1$=$t2$ is an element in the set that underlies
       structure/ring $x2$≈$s3$ that is nilpotent in that structure
       with nilpotency $x3$=$t3$ (nonnegative integer according to the
       typical rules)
       Notes: x3 is the minimum positive exponent such that x1 multiplied by
       itself that many times (according to the definition of
       multiplication imposed by and endowing structure x2) is
       identically the zero(-like) element in that structure; any
       greater power will likewise be zero(-like). The zero(-like)
       element is itself trivially nilpotent with nilpotency 1.
       Warning: This word is for nilpotent elements. Nilpotent groups,
       for example, should not be referred to by this word except when
       considered as whole objects that participate as elements in
       some larger structure. See also:  nonsmi
