Re: [lojban-beginners] Lojban for beginners



I usually pronounce Robert as rab,rt as the CLL suggests.  Maybe someone from the UK can give input on the pronunciation there.

Hi to all...

I've started the translation into Spanish of "Lojban for beginners", and I just encountered my first doubt. The following paragraph contains yhe lojbanization of the nam Robert:

- - -
The final point is stress. As we've seen, Lojban words are stressed on the penultimate syllable, and if a name has different stress, we use capital letters. This means that the English and French names Robert come out differently in Lojban: the English name is robyt. in UK English, or rab,rt. in some American dialects, but the French is roBER. .
- - -

Robert in English becomes "robyt", apparently. But... shouldn't it be "robyrt" ?

Thanks in advance,
