(Lojban's attitudinals applied to English text) for the upcoming sequel, "Mind Agility Hacks"! I'm going to give a brief introduction to the 39 attitudinal scales, as well as the ro'X, bu'o, pei, dai, ge'e, and perhaps a few other words. Also I'm going to talk about spelling out attitudinals with ASL fingerspelling (leave off dots and say apostrophe as H, in short). I would very much appreciate any input, suggestions, and other assistance. We already owe Ron some gratitude for writing Lojban a very nice blurb in "Mind Performance Hacks", Hack #51 "Learn an Artificial Language", where he featured Esperanto, Lojban, Klingon, AllNoun, and Solresol. One thing he said about us was, "In short, Lojban is a kind of super-language designed to shoot off your Sapir-Whorfean linguistic shackles and blow your mind open. Give it a try." Not a bad review. Hopefully this new chapter will be good publicity for Lojban as well. :) glibau mu'o To unsubscribe from this list, send mail to lojban-list-request@lojban.org with the subject unsubscribe, or go to http://www.lojban.org/lsg2/, or if you're really stuck, send mail to secretary@lojban.org for help.
