[jbovlaste] Re: crab



i haven't followed the discussion lately (if there was any), but
wasn't it considered bad style to use brazenly cultural fu'ivla for
non-cultural items? the taxonomic way to do it would be {braxi'ura}
for example, from Brachyura (but i don't remember if there was a more
normatized way to do this).
