What about 'tabra'? Is there an easy way to > distinguish brass instruments? A 'tabra' is a lip-reed instrument, one in which the actuator is the player's lips, so no x2 place is needed. The lip-reed instruments are essentially the brass instruments as generally understood. The complete set is: jgita: stringed instrument, with or without frets flani: air reed instrument tabra: lip reed instrument xagri: physical reed instrument, single or double damri: percussion instrument pipno: keyboard instrument, regardless of sound mechanism > 31 All seem Ok except 'sluni' *(garlic). There's already a gismu for garlic, > 'sunga', isn't there? Woops! Thanks for pointing this out. -- John Cowan cowan@snark.thyrsus.com ...!uunet!lock60!snark!cowan e'osai ko sarji la lojban.
