Are there other equivalents of semantically mysterious tanru in Lojban?
Is there any relation between
{broda brode} and {lo broda cu co'e lo brode}?

I've always felt that {broda brode} is equivalent to {brode do'e lo
broda} and that {do'e} is the same as {fi'o co'e}, but that's just my
opinion.

I define {broda brode} as:
la'e �lu broda brode li'u� dunli
la'e su'o lu'a
�lu brode do'e lo broda li'u� ce
�lu brode do'e lo jai broda li'u� ce
�lu brode do'e la'e lo broda li'u� ce
�lu brode do'e lo su'u broda li'u� ce
�lu brode gi'e broda li'u� ce
�lu brode je broda li'u� ce
�lu brode joi broda li'u� ce
�lu brode jo'u broda li'u� ce
�lu me lo brode poi broda li'u�

This definition can be extended, of course, but a similar one been the
basis of my veljvo -> lujvo place structure conversion algorithm, so it
generally works.

I don't think it's anything but fact that do'e = fi'o co'e, just like
cu'e = fi'o mo.
