[lojban-beginners] Re: [lojban] A suggestion for the Lojban names of weekdays and months.



RE: dozenal

Also because:
1/2 = .6
1/3 = .4
1/4 = .3
1/6 = .2

Which means that, in addition to 2,3,4 and 6 being divisors, 8 and 9
produce non-repeating decimals (2/3 or .8 and 3/4 or .9 respectively).
Also, how many eggs/doughnuts/plastic utensils/paper plates do you
tend to get? Is it a multiple of 10, or a multiple of 12? =D

RE: D'ni

It's actually called "ternary". "Trinary" isn't a real word. Don't mix
latin and greek.
(like 'television' or 'telephone' for example)

RE: People still trying to come up with a new gismu.

=D Stop, please. We already have a word for what you're trying to
make.

pavde'i
relde'i
etc.

There are your easy lujvo. If you want to be creative, help selkik
come up with culture weekdays. So far we've got banana day, but we're
not sure what day that is.
