So it is normal after all it has a pending "queue" of "y" Saying .yyyyy seems natural to me, as the flux of words is suspended, which is what you normally do when hesitating. Of course, it would be rather different if hesitation was only "written" [and I assume what I say is meaningful, for I don't really see what a written hesitation would be...] Well, .yyyyy seems OK to me, even if, alas ! it is not grammatical :-( .esk -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "lojban" group.
