To take up that many spaces for named days of the week? Also, xorxes' suggested merge of cmeva and brivla doesn't seem likely. Why not {pavmomdei}? We already have {bavlamdei} and {prulamdei} so another three-rafsi lujvo isn't that terrible. I can appreciate that you found the fault in the current scheme, but your proposal is a terrible idea. The zi'evla for the months, not so much. I think it's kinda cool. Really, the whole idea behind the proposal is pretty cool. However, you'll never get a proposal passed for -that much- gismu space for something that ridiculous. {prudei} - a previous day {prulamdei} - yesterday {cabdei} - today {bavlamdei} - tomorrow {bavdei} - a future day nonmomdei pavmomdei relmomdei cibmomdei vonmomdei mumymomdei xavmomdei zelmomdei or even... djenonmoi djepavmoi djerelmoi djecibmoi djevonmoi djemomymoi djezelmoi -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Lojban Beginners" group.
