Re: [lojban-beginners] zo braile

brailyle'u is not a valid lujvo. You can't have a fu'ivla and a gismu as a veljvo. In that case you'll have to use "zei".

For "braile zei lerfu" or just "braile" you can use any place structure, but something similar to that of "lerfu" would be nice, so my proposal is:

braile: "x1 is a braille letter/symbol in braille alphabet/character-set x2 representing x3" (I know it's almost the same as the one Pierre suggested but without the tersu'i "encoding x3" (omitted to make the lujvo more consistent compared to "lerfu")). You can surely add the place "encoding" in some other way via modal etc.

For "I am studying braille" you could use an abstractor: "mi tadni lo su'u
braile" or "mi tadni lo si'o braile". Or you could say "la .brail." (which
could also refer to the inventor of the system).
