Re: [bpfk] official cmavo form



Just for your info. Considering application of Ci/uV -> Cii/uuV to fu'ivla, not only those beginning with CgV but also those in the form (C)V(g)CCgV... produce tosmabru-like problem. I picked up such fu'ivla from an xml dump dated 2015-01-08:

eskua, februa, fiakre, fiesta, kuadranta, kuaidzi, madjio, matriocka, patriarko, reskuamata, restuatara, tiatro, tuitsku

For example, {februa} will be {fe + bruua} by adding u. In this case, the apostrophe-method is also inapplicable because {febru'a} is in lujvo form.

If we require that ii or uu should be fully within the same word, this problem will not occur, though.

Only within cmevla, right? Otherwise you'd be able to write "tuitsku" and get two words.

"tuitsku" would indeed unambiguously represent two words "tu" followed by "uitsku". That's why I said that for aesthetic reasons one could also require that the ii or uu be fully  within the same word.  (I should also say that the V has to be a vowel, not a glide.)

I suggest that <tuitr, nitcion, pier, buenosaires> be deemed, by a general rule that I am not competent to formulate, orthographic variants of <tuuitr, nitciion, piier, buuenosaires> .

The rule would be simple: CiiV <-> CiV; CuuV <-> CuV.

One could also require for aesthetic reasons that the ii or uu be within a single word, although this is not strictly necessary from the point of view of unambiguity.
