Re: [lojban-beginners] APE: Salutations! (Greetings and partings)



la .pier. cu cusku di'e
Here's one I said to clsn at one of the jbonunsla:
"lo panpi ko li'i surdei"
Should have been "lo ka panpi", and I know three ways to say it in four
languages: "shabbat shalom", "gut shabbes", "feliz sábado", "happy Sabbath".
What's the best way to say it in Lojban?

I don't think there is such a thing as the best way, but since the other four languages have shorter ways to say it, maybe a similarly short Lojban version is desirable. How about:

ko surdei zanfri
Good Sabbath!

In many cases I prefer {.a'o} over {ko}, but I admit that {ko} tends to feel more energetic.
