Since lojbanists seem to like base 12 a > lot :) Really? Who other than Lindar favors base 12? I personally favor base 16, and Hugglesworth seems to think both 8 and 16 are useful.. , but I haven't met anyone not Lindar who clearly favors base 12 (I understand one reason for this is because it has a lot of divisors -- 2,3,4,6 vs base 16's 2,4,8 or base 8's 2,4 ). What base do you favor? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Lojban Beginners" group. To post to this group, send email to lojban-beginners@googlegroups.com.
