Re: [lojban-beginners] Lojban "r"

Then I would have a problem distinguishing which is being said outside of context, as unless {cirlrfu} and {cirlerfu} have different emphasis, they sound the same to me- at least when I say them. Fortunately the meanings are so different I wouldn't have this problem if either were used in a sentence.

If there's a cheese named Foo, it could be called "cirlrfu" in Lojban. Whereas
lo cirlerfu could be a letter used historically, or a letter designating a
historical period, or the like.
