Coi ro do,

I am just lear= ning Lojban. For my first post, I am going to list some lujvo (compound wor= ds, from my understanding) that I have made to express certain English word= s in Lojban. Here is what I have contrived so far:

Animals:
  • pangolin - ?*mantyctimabru (? +=A0mantyctimabru;=A0scaly=A0an= teater) *Here I am trying to figure out what Lojbanic word= would mean "scale" in the sense of an integumentary flake, as on= a reptile, a fish, or on the wings of a butterfly or moth.
  • tadpole - cifpipybanfi (c= if, rafsi of cifnu + pipybanfi; baby frog), on the model of "ciftoldi&= quot; (caterpillar).=A0
  • froglet - naru'epipybanfi (naru'e + pipybanfi; almost-frog)
  • newly-metamorphosed = frog* - ci'opipybanfi (ci'o, rafsi of citno + pipybanfi; young frog= ) *What I like t= o call a "baby frog."
Ecology:
  • extinction (in the sense of hunting to or intentionally causing e= xtinction) - mulcatra (mul, rafsi of mulno + catra; complete kill)
  • extinction (in the sense of dyi= ng out naturally or indirectly caused by human activity) - mulnunmro (mul, = rafsi of mulno=A0=A0+ nunmro)
Note that I have consulted the jbovlaste for the words (and Wiktio= nary for "mantyctimabru"). I have probably made some mistakes her= e - please let me know what you all think!

Tu'u,
cariar.jermanis.

PS: When is the schwa (y= ) added between gismu and their respective rafsi, as seen in "pipybanf= i"=A0and "mantyctimabru?" For pipybanfi, the rafsi "pip= " of the gismu "plipe" does not have a final vowel, so I wil= l suppose that the schwa is added as a helping vowel. The gismu "manti= ," which, according to the jbovlaste, does not appear to have any rafs= i, has a final vowel, and the word "anteater" in Lojban could be = spelled as mantictimabru, but the final "i" of manti is made into= a schwa. Why is this?
