From Lojban to English :
Word: cra'arna [jbovlaste] Type: fu'ivla Gloss Word: aim in the sense of "direction toward which something points" Gloss Word: face in the sense of "direction/orientation" Gloss Word: orientation in the sense of "direction being faced" Definition: x1 is such that its directed axis or primary 'face' is oriented/faces/aimed in the direction of/toward point x2 according to convention x3 Notes: x3 determines what is the axis that is being implicitly considered and what its direction is; for example, if x1 is an actually-oriented circular loop then a convention x3 which specifies that the line through its center which does not intersect the loop as the axis and the right-hand rule as providing the direction will determine x2. x2 is not a direction but any point in such a direction, so no frame of reference is necessary (the statement holds equally true in all frames of reference, even if the labels are different).
