Besides English, only Spanish and Esperanto have enough translations
in jbovlaste to produce respectable dictionaries (all gismu and cmavo,
plus some lujvo). Other langugages have only a few words, if any. French
for example has 27 words, Russian has 6, German none, Norwegian 70.

The fourth language after English, Spanish and Esperanto is actually Lojban
itself, which has all cmavo as well as some lujvo and a few gismu.
