So you *can* guess fake > words, but they must be valid gismu. Validity requires a good bit more than that. "fgoto" for example will pass but is invalid. A CCVCV gismu must begin with one of the 48 valid initial clusters, and even a CVCCV can't have a bogus cluster in the middle, like "fapzu". I am *not* saying that you should enforce these constraints, just that that's what is required for a valid gismu form. Personally, I would let people guess any old @#$*. Why not, it's their guess they are wasting. It's the programmer's choice. -- Values of beeta will give rise to dom!
