No, I do not want to speak for myself: so /le/ doesn't seem appropriate (doesn't it say: something I - the speaker - describe?) Just want to have a Lojban expression for something by others than me described as 'Madonna'. IMHO this should be possible the same way like having an expression for 'shoe' or 'tree'. With *real* mother I intended to stress the *biological* sense with regard to her son as a historical personality (whereas / mamta/ is not restricted to being biological). Should one better make it a cmene? .aulun. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ WRITERS WANTED!
