I don't know what you mean by distinctive. Each name is associated with
exactly one thing. .uibu, for example, is the name of ":)". You can't use
.uibu to refer to anything else.

The sumti in a bridi, other than the first, can appear either before or
after the selbri.

{lo mlatu cu kalte lo cipni lonu kelci}, {lo mlatu lo cipni cu kalte lonu
kelci}, and {lo mlatu lo cipni lonu kelci cu kalte} are all the same bridi.
The convention is for only the first to be before the selbri, likely
because the sooner the listener hears the selbri, the sooner he knows what
the sumti relations are.

{lo mlatu lo cipni lonu kelci cu klama} is a completely different bridi,
but no one listening would know that until the very last word is said.
