It seems that my textbook (not uncharacteristically for scholarly works) is more concerned with the exhaustive treatment of all possibilities (what would happen if _-er_ were to be attached to _c(h)i_, _s(h)i_ or _z(h)i_?) than with the actual occurrence of such words. It does, however, cite _shi4r_ `affair', _ci2r_ `word' and _zi4r_ `character', and notes that they are pronounced as if the vowel were _e_ not _i_. --Ivan ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Get 6 months of FREE* MSN Internet access! http://click.egroups.com/1/5727/4/_/17627/_/962636948/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ To unsubscribe, send mail to lojban-unsubscribe@onelist.com
