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: tai'e'i [jbovlaste]
        Type: experimental cmavo (YOU RISK BEING MISUNDERSTOOD IF YOU USE THIS WORD)
  Gloss Word: Schläfli symbol in the sense of "operator"
     selma'o: VUhU?
  Definition: mekso unary operator: basic Schlafli symbol composer (defined
       only on ordered lists)
       Notes: Given an ordered (typically finite) list (which is a single
       object) of zero or more (probably nonnegative) rational
       numbers, L = (X_1, X_2, ..., X_n). This word composes them in
       order into a Schlafli symbol S(L) with these entries exactly
       and without any entries that do not appear in the list so as to
       produce an (n-1)-dimensional regular polytope. For example: L =
       () implies that S(L) = S(()) is a line segment. Where L = (6),
       S(L) = S((6)) is a regular convex hexagon; generally, for
       integer X_1 > 2, S((X_1)) is a proper convex regular (X_1)-gon.
       S((X_1, X_2) is a proper convex regular polyhedron with
       polygonal faces being all of form S((X_1)) such that they are
       arranged with X_2 touching at each vertex of the polyhedron.
       Star polytopes and tessellations are supported. More general
       notation such as Schlafli symbols prefixed by a letter/acted
       upon by a function, which are affixed with/multiplied by a
       number or other symbols, which contain "|", etc. are not
       presently supported in this definition; only the most
       basic/classic Schlafli symbols (those composed of a single pair
       of curly braces containing rational numbers separated only by
       commas, and nothing else) are presently supported. Certain
       operators (such as "half", "alter", etc., as well as Cartesian
       product, "add"/"plus", and "join", and affixation of other
       numbers or symbols) have somewhat special definitions on
       Schlafli symbols; they are presently not supported in Lojban
       (but this will hopefully soon change). Not all ordered lists
       will produce good output. See also: tarmrclefli
