Your use of "piktcu" needs to be commented on :) On Saturday 14 July 2012 15:34:38 djandus wrote: > > > pokrjutsi: x1 is a pokemon species of type(s) x2 with evolutions/family > > > > x3 > > fixed :) If you're making a lujvo, that would be "pokyjutsi"; "pokrjutsi" is a type-3 fu'ivla. However, using "pok" as the rafsi for "pokmone" is contrary to the rules of the language. Some fu'ivla have a rafsi formed by deleting the last letter (which is necessarily a vowel), but no fu'ivla has a rafsi shorter than that, and "pokmon" cannot be a rafsi because it's the concatenation of two rafsi. I'd rather see you use "pok" as the rafsi of "pokme". Pierre -- li fi'u vu'u fi'u fi'u du li pa -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "lojban" group.
