Re: [lojban-beginners] English w and y sounds



What about eg. {glibau}? Isn't it much like "gleebow"?
Likewise for lujvo with *ai, *ei, *oi rafsi. Eg. {vrogai} is like "vroguy"

Oh, I misread. No to gismu, because they're all of form CVCCV or CCVCV, so no diphthongs. Possible but unlikely for lujvo, because of how they're made. Not exclusive to attitudinals, however, as they can be found in cmene and fu'ivla.

Can a gismu or lujvo have a "y" or "w" sound in it (by this I mean the English sounds)? Reading about the morphology again, it seems like this can't happen. Which means they only ever occur in attitudinals.
