I consider the entire banXXX set, where XXX is a language code that is somehow 
mangled into something pronounceable in Lojban, silly. Those words begin with 
a rafsi, but do not follow the form of type-3 fu'ivla. If I were discussing 
Bella Coola, I'd call it "nu'alka" or "belkula", not "banbulucu".
