as in the activity where you ride on skis and go down a snowy mountain. The vortaro is giving me both "skii" and "skikuri;" are these both correct, or does one mean something else?
So for instance, if I want to say the following: "When you visit the mountains, if it happens to snow you should ski."
Should the word for ski be "skii" or "skikuri?"

skikuri [ski + kuri] = to run on skiis
"kiam vi vizitas la montojn, se neĝas vi devus skii."

Lernu's Eo-Eo definitions are fairly limited, so I recommend using the Plena Ilustrita Vortaro (PIV) to clarify things when the En-Eo translations are ambiguous.

Sxajne | Apparently :
skikuri = movigxi antauxen sur skioj per sia propra forto (EN: cross-country skiing)
skii = cxiuj skiaj sportoj kune (EN: all types of ski sport together)
> where you ride on skis and go down a snowy mountain
malsuprenira skiado, alpa skiado, dekliva skiado ("skikuri" is NOT good)

Clarence666:I admit I did not look in the PIV for skii, but mine was a more general comment on how to find help in this situation. Skii works fine for "skiing", but to be more specific to "snow-skiing" you would have to get creative, but this would be almost certainly unnecessary due to context (you don't water-ski in the alps).kaŝperanto:recommend using the Plena Ilustrita Vortaro (PIV) to clarify things when the En-Eo translations are ambiguousNek PIV nek REVO donas bonegan klarigon pri "ski". http://eo.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skiado

kaŝperanto:(you don't water-ski in the alps).Are you quite sure of that?
