3  Make it a quotation
        .i l= u uufuuf li'u

I meant...
. i lo'u uufuuf= le'u
...per .arpis suggestion.

"Woof!" may not have a layered syntax or an argument structure, which
is analogous to Lojban's observatives (selbri-only expressions). An
observative with an avalent (zero-argument) brivla could work much as
"Woof!", in my opinion.

If we were to create a brivla for each animal exression, probably we
would have to tap into the expandability of fu'ivla, much like we did
for certain ISO codes:

https://docs.google.com/<= wbr>spreadsheet/ccc?key=3D0Ai4mbIPr2PUwdENVckVaOTJLbVdGVE5SeGJ0MT= BTbGc
https://docs.google.com/<= wbr>spreadsheet/ccc?key=3D0Ai4mbIPr2PUwdGNYUFhrdmV1cmpLeVVQZkNSU3= dBYUE

We could have a similar list of expressional sounds using some kind of
indicative prefixes. For example:

cmo,ufu / gerku,uu (Woof!)
cmonkua / datkakua (Quack!)
cmomiau / mlatumiau (Meow!)

molxisi / sincexisi (Hiss!)

zbi,onki / xarju,onki (Oink!)

These would all be zero-argument and compatible with {lu ... li'u}.
