One alternative rule which hopefully will be considered when the BPFK gets to it is discussed here: http://www.lojban.org/phpbb/viewtopic.php?t=70 The proposed rule is that cmene not only end but also start with a glottal stop, thus making any other restrictions unnecessary. The main advantage of this rule is that at least in writing it won't be violated, the way the "la" rule permanently is. mu'o mi'e xorxes __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
