I've been looking for ways to say these without using experimental cmavo. But in the meantime these provide a stopgap.

p FALSE SORTA TRUE


na p TRUE SORTA FALSE

ja'a p FALSE SORTA TRUE

nai'a p TRUE FALSE FALSE

jai'a p FALSE FALSE TRUE

xorxes has suggested that, following the pattern of JAhA + CAI, the paradigm should be completed thus:

p FALSE SORTA TRUE


na cu'i p = ja'a cu'i p FALSE TRUE FALSE

--And Rosta


These are operators, functions from truth values to truth values: they read more or less like this (being placed before the core bridi):

na
it is not the case that
ja'a
it is the case that
na'a
it is false that
jai'a
it is true that
nacu'i
it is indeterminate that

Missing from this is "it is sorta the case that": SORTA TRUE SORTA (or FALSE TRUE SORTA).

  • I didn't propose those because I can't get my head round the difference from F-T-F. A full series of operators are proposed under Three-value Logic (though it is incompatible with the JAhA + CAI proposal assumed by the proposal above). But the ones on this page are the ones I personally would find usable and useful. --And Rosta
