I assume by mijyjbo you mean old-rafsi? I think those may be a bit strong---the english version isn't really a snip of old english, it's just modern english with different spellings and wordings to make it sound old. I think my way captures that, but if you'd like to change that paragraph to use old rafsi and one or two loglan words I suppose I'd be willing to swap it out for mine. --=20 Jordan DeLong - fracture@allusion.net lu zo'o loi censa bakni cu terzba le zaltapla poi xagrai li'u sei la mark. tuen. cusku --9jxsPFA5p3P2qPhR Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Description: lojban translation Content-Language: art-lojban Content-Disposition: inline; filename=lojban_mime_part Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable On Mon, Dec 02, 2002 at 03:18:23PM -0500, Pierre Abbat wrote: > On Thursday 28 November 2002 15:56, Jordan DeLong wrote: > > lu jetnu tojiqa leni cequ xusra cu banzu le ca zaqi no prije je > > cilre cu nafxuqa toi fa leduqu loqe since zoqu ri se kanla lo ckaji > > be leka cequ kaqe ve xlura ro se jitro binxo lo poi ri toqe djica > > kuqo nu lacpu .e lo jaqe nu betri mrobiqo fiqo catra be fi lo batci > > le noqa li'u >=20 > This looks like someone from Loglandia, or at least eastern Lojbangug,=20 > writing the klobau of the hills northeast of Bertcad.
