For all of these social actions, I've been using variable
combinations of xance, janli, slilu, and rapli.  Which is fine, I
guess, but they're such *specific* actions it seems silly.

How do you think this should be handled?

My inclination is type 3 with jikcr- or so.  For that sort of thing,
does it really matter if I draw from the dominant language of the
area, rather than trying to find some kind of "original language"
etymology, since it's American culture that we're duplicating?
