Here's all the words in the language ordered by frequency; ignore everything but the first column. http://teddyb.org/~rlpowell/hobbies/lojban/flashcards/big_list However, before you really get going, please record the first few cmavo, and then the first few gismu, and then these gismu: betfu pelxu ciska gunka mudri jarco vukro zbabu which happen to cover all the sounds in the language except ' and y :) Post them at http://www.lojban.org/tiki/valsi+Sound+Files, and let us know. Then I'm going to make Arnt, our resident phonology expert, listen to them. I don't want to get 1k words into it and have to tell you your "a" sounds are wrong, or something.
