Most of what I see written in notebooks at my house doesn't really fit this description. Even if we can come up with a way to squeeze it in (I'm writing messages about Lojban to myself, or something)  it seems to miss the point. The contents of a notebook can be just about anything, but generally they are all things written by someone, with some writing implement. So, it seems to me that a notebook is most fundamentally a writing surface/storage medium, on which someone writes something with some writing implement; thus, a "terci'a", and it's in the form of a book, so "terci'acku" seems that it would convey the intended meaning, wouldn't it?


I like terci'acku! The alternative for me would be using selpapri so perhaps selpapryterci'a or terci'aselpapri right? But I think I like terci'acku better.
