Actually I had never encountered the word "errands" in ENglish and I was not sure how to translate it. > Why "modix" instead of "modis" or "modin"? Don't know, I thought that a small pirate would have preferred a name like that. Anyway it doesn't make any difference, right? As long as this the way he wants his name to sound in lojban. > p. 8: "rainelci" is two words.

"le jinku befi la skorbut" does not make sense. lo > jinku is something (not necessarily an injection; I've come up with "tatygre > jinku" for "diathelic immunity") which causes the immune system to recognize > some antigen as a pathogen and attack it, thus hopefully preventing a disease > for many years.

The gloss for jukni mention crabs (and spieders ...), I agree that is not precice but I think is better to use workds that can be easily found on the dictionary rather then be precise on the type of crustaceans, > p. 20: "ta" should be "ti". "ca'o le je'erse'a" should be "ca'o lo nu > je'erse'a". "muvgau" doesn't make sense, but I'm not sure what the right word I've opted for "lo nu ..." . I opted for muvdu now.
