This is followed by the largest city, if different. Other cities might be listed if they meet my can't-define-it-but-I-know-it-when-I-see-it criteria for "major" cities. Don't ask. I have resisted the temptation to translate words like "north" or "new" into Lojban. My strategy here is to treat the English adjective as part of the English name, and to simply transliterate both of them. I understand that "la" is OK in cmene if preceded by a consonant, hence its use in orlando and atlanta. Final unstressed "land" syllables changed to "lynd", rather than "lnd" to avoid ambiguity as to which liquid is the vowel. Where possible, I made the Lojban name one word. The only exceptions are cases where I need two strong accents. At the age of 33, I have no idea how to pronounce "Montpelier, VT". Sorry! I might not pronounce all these the same way you do. There might be more than one Lojban spelling that aproximates my pronounciation equally well. I might have goofed.
