Why not {uuf}?

I think you need {lo'u} and {le'u} instead of {lu} and {li'u}, considering the contents are not "grammatical lojban text".

You may also choose to simplify this by omitting the quotes, since {arfarf} is as valid a cmevla as {arf} is.

So could I get away with something like...

The little duck is lost.  Woof!  Woof!

.i .uinai lo cmalu datka ku farcri
.i sa'ei lu arf arf lu'i (for lack of a 'w' sound...my wife suggests vuf or even uif)
do I need the the lu...li'u?

And then would...
.i sa'ie lu kuak kuak li'u
work for 'Quack! Quack!'?

I have one "Splash!" as well
.i sa'ie splac

is my guess.  Thanks for the feedback!

This is adorable and your grammar is spot on. I think sa'ei is almost what you want, but not quite. I think you could get away with barking/quacking a UI.
