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: zi'ejvo [jbovlaste]
        Type: lujvo
  Gloss Word: irregular lujvo
  Definition: x1 is a lujvo with irregular rafsi, meaning x2, with arguments
       x3, built from tanru/compound-phrase x4
       Notes: Refers to a somewhat controversial idea that formal rafsi
       should be abolished, with coiners of lujvo being able to pick
       rafsi other than the formally assigned ones. One example might
       be shortening mitysisku into mitsku. See lujvo, zi'evla
