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: tcelerita [jbovlaste]
        Type: fu'ivla
  Gloss Word: 299792458 meters per second in the sense of "SI measurement - by definition"
  Gloss Word: c0 in the sense of "physics/physical; propagation of massless wave through/in an ideal perfect vacuum/classical free space"
  Gloss Word: celeritas in the sense of "physics/physical; propagation of massless wave through/in an ideal perfect vacuum/classical free space"
  Gloss Word: speed of gluon in the sense of "physics/physical; propagation of wave through/in an ideal perfect vacuum/classical free space"
  Gloss Word: speed of gravitational wave in the sense of "physics/physical; propagation of wave through/in an ideal perfect vacuum/classical free space"
  Gloss Word: speed of light in the sense of "physics/physical; propagation of wave through/in an ideal perfect vacuum/classical free space"
  Gloss Word: speed of massless particle-wave propagation in the sense of "physical/physics; through ideal perfect vacuum/classical free space"
  Gloss Word: speed of photon in the sense of "physics/physical; propagation of wave through/in an ideal perfect vacuum/classical free space"
  Gloss Word: speed of the strong nuclear interaction in the sense of "physics/physical; propagation of wave through/in an ideal perfect vacuum/classical free space"
  Gloss Word: speed supremum in the sense of "physical; ideal/theoretical (in a given paradigm of physics)"
  Gloss Word: supremum of the speed of information transmission in the sense of "physical"
  Definition: x1 (number; default: 1) is the physical speed supremum (for
       objects of positive masses)/celeritas/c0 expressed in units x2
       (default: in terms of natural parameter c0; id est:
       unitless/dimensionless and equal to 1) in (paradigm/system of)
       physics x3 (default: this, our actual. physical universe and
       reality);
       Notes: In the Newtonian model, for any finite nonzero units of spatial
       length and temporal duration, c0 is infinitely large.  In the
       modern Relativistic/Einsteinian paradigm of physics, c0 is a
       finite positive number for any finite nonzero units of spatial
       length and temporal duration; thus, in such cases, we can set
       it equal to 1 (begin measuring in terms of percentage of c0)
       and gain scaled Relativistic results; by Maxwellian
       electromagnetism, c0 = 299792458 m/s. Notice the lack of
       reference to the speed of light and of media through which the
       wave/particle propagates.  This is a  physical constant of a
       universe; any entities of zero mass in a universe will
       propagate at c0 in an ideal perfect vacuum/classical free space
       - we just happen to name three such entities "light",
       "gravitation", and "the strong nuclear force". See also:
