ave to learn how to pronouce the X,=A0but I imagine you have no pr= oblem with it as it exists in your native language=A0already. It's just= kind of a fact of the language. Swedish doesn't have the=A0letter Z,= =A0for example. You'll just have to learn.

Lujvo exist because they're made for creating more = words. If your question is why we have them instead of just using the four-= letter version, would you rather=A0say {jongau} or {jornygasnu}? {xamgyzmad= u} or {xagmau}/{xauzma}?

se/te/ve/xe has a pattern, just not the AEIOU pattern. = You'll find there are three common patterns in the language.
=
1. AEIOU - Obviously. Vowel order.
2. STVX - Alpha= betical order of consonants. U is a vowel and W isn't in Lojban.
3. IAU - You see this for here/there/yonder, like {ti}, {ta}, and {tu}= .
