Rafsi and cmavo are used in totally different environments, rafsi always (and only) as elements of a lujvo, and cmavo never as elements of a lujvo (unless the rafsi of the cmavo is the same). Some cmavo have rafsi, but the rafsi do not always have the same form as their cmavo. stevo --part1_c4b.af0cfe4.32c69a4f_boundary Content-Type: text/html; charset="US-ASCII" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable In a message dated 12/29/2006 10:07:30 AM Ce= ntral Standard Time, ecartis@digitalkingdom.org writes:

Thanks,

Most of the rafsi are also cmavo.  Rafsi and cmavo are used in tota= lly different environments, rafsi always (and only) as elements of a lujvo,=20= and cmavo never as elements of a lujvo (unless the rafsi of the cmavo is the= same).  Some cmavo have rafsi, but the rafsi do not always have the sa= me form as their cmavo.
