I'd like to straighten some things about notation. I've never seen = any
explicit explanation, but here's what I've figured out myself:
* double quotes are for quoting natlang text, eg: "red" is an
adjective
* curly brackets aka braces are for quoting Lojban text, eg: {xunre}
is a brivla
* lojban words used in their original meaning are not quoted (like
{brivla} above)

Some people mix it up (maybe myself sometimes too).
If I'm wrong, please somebody correct me.=A0

mu'o mi'e ianek

My preferences:
Double quotes for literal strings: "= Five" has four letters.
Single quotes for meanings. "Ba= chelor" means 'never married male adult human'.
Braces for Lojban literal strings (so they don't conflict with apo= strophes, y'y).=A0
Italics for foreign words.=A0
