I've put up the next versio= n of the chapter here: http://www.scribd.com/doc/13404260/lojban1

I sort of side-stepped the whole stress on names issue, in the  
interests of keeping it simple. I also re-did the names, and added  = ;
many more sentences.

Can anyone spot any errors?


1. The capital "B" of the larger oval in footnote 1 is in a different fo= nt from the "B" in the text next to it.  This makes it harder to tell i= f they are, in fact, referring to the same "B".
2. ".i" is unncessary, if not wrong, after "ni'o" in the second group of= sentences.
3. "mad'rid" is still wrong.  Apostrophes ("y'y bu") cannot come be= tween consonants.  Use either "madrid" (with default stress on "ma" or=20= "maDRID").
4. di'u "la .afrikas." is not on the map.
5. In "le remoi cipra" "bridla" should be "brivla".

General question:  Does "mo" have a place structure of its own? &nb= sp;IOW, is "la paris. mo la frans." correct?
