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: tolylau [jbovlaste]
        Type: lujvo
  Gloss Word: quiet in the sense of "low noise level"
  Gloss Word: soft in the sense of "sound"
  Definition: x1 is soft/quiet/making only a bit of noise, at observation
       point x2 by standard x3.
       Notes: “Silent” is smaji, whereas tolylau refers to a small amount
       of sound. Likewise, “totally noisy” is tolsma, which is even
       greater than cladu. smaji < tolylau < cladu < tolsma.

From Lojban to Russian :

  Gloss Word: слабый in the sense of "звук"
  Gloss Word: тихий
  Definition: x1 - тихий/слабый/мягкий/негромкий/приглушённый звук в точке
       наблюдения x2 согласно стандарту x3; x1 производит мало шума
       Notes: "Бесшумный" - это smaji, в то время как tolylau относится к
       небольшому количеству звука. Подобным образом, "абсолютно
       шумный" - это tolsma, громче, чем cladu. smaji <
       tolylau < cladu < tolsma.

       tolsma, was noch lauter als cladu ist, zu übersetzen.
       smaji < tolylau < cladu < tolsma
