I was asking about the Book's proposal, in which a lujvo cannot end with a= =20 fu'ivla, so {banryglauka} is invalid. I was thinking of a word in which a=20 fu'ivla rafsi is both preceded and followed by rafsi, such as=20 {ba'orglaukyne'o}. The Book doesn't say what to do if a fu'ivla rafsi is=20 preceded by a CVV rafsi, so I wasn't sure. In my proposal, a rafsi that immediately precedes a fu'ivla rafsi must end = in=20 a consonant, so if you want to use a cmavo with no CVC rafsi, you have to u= se=20 {zei}. I hadn't thought of {ba'oryglauka}; if it works, and all cmavo that= =20 have rafsi have a CVV or CVC rafsi, it would be a way to make lujvo with=20 them. (I'll check later. I have an errand to run.) phma --=20 .i toljundi do .ibabo mi'afra tu'a do .ibabo damba do .ibabo do jinga .icu'u la ma'atman.
