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: veljvo [jbovlaste]
        Type: lujvo
  Gloss Word: metaphor [of affix compound]
  Gloss Word: tanru construct of lujvo in the sense of "underlying metaphor of lujvo"
  Gloss Word: underlying metaphor in the sense of "of affix compound/lujvo"
  Gloss Word: morpholexical part of a compound word
  Definition: x1 is a metaphor [of affix compound] with meaning [of affix
       compound] x2 with argument [of affix compound] x3 with affix
       compound x4; x1 is the tanru/metaphor construct of complex
       word/affix compound/lujvo x4
       Notes: x4 is a compound word that is composed of various
       morphological/lexical "parts" that represents the underlying
       tanru/construct x1. Since this word is language-independent,
       the metaphor construct need not be successively-binary, as it
       is in Lojban. x1 is the tanru construct that underlies/is used
       to interpret/analyze/"break apart" lujvo x4.
