Are you telling me they=20 are off-limits for use in lujvo? If so, then what purpose do they serve as= =20 rafsi? I's like to try to use {masti} in a lujvo, but I think {pavmasti} means any= =20 span of time measuring one month. Does {pavmoi masti} mean first thing=20 measured in months? Does {pavmoiselmasti} mean first month? If not, how=20 about {pavmoi (some abstraction) masti}? Since I'm completely unfamiliar with the Zodiac, at first I was confused by= =20 the month names:=20 kanbyma'i goat-month jaurbeima'i water-carry-month fipma'i fish-month lanma'i sheep-month bakma'i cow-month matsi'uma'i fit-mutual-month cinfyma'i lion-month xlima'i girl-month laxma'i balance-month rebjukma'i tail-spider-month celma'i launcher-month But if no scientific distinctions separate the months as they do the=20 seasons, I suppose they are as good as any. Personally, I would like both=20 the Zodiac and the number system to be valid names for the months in Lojban ------=_Part_5575_24687537.1126297112374--
