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: Similar, but not equivalent, to pe'a and sa'enai.  If a

       but is not being used in that technical sense, it may be marked
       for layperson interpretation by this word. See also:
