I've thought of a few, but they don't follow a pattern, and I don't know if anyone else has come up with one. skorbuti - x1 has scurvy with symptoms x2 fang.niukasl - Exotic Newcastle disease nakri'a narganse terbilmo'a - androgen insensitivity syndrome There might be another terbilmo'a which I forget. Also, some diseases such as cold, flu, and heartburn are named for obsolete or ill-fitting metaphors. Does anyone have better names for them? phma To unsubscribe from this list, send mail to lojban-list-request@lojban.org with the subject unsubscribe, or go to http://www.lojban.org/lsg2/, or if you're really stuck, send mail to secretary@lojban.org for help.
