[lojban-beginners] Re: characters from tales

   Most of these will be some form of tanru (compound phrase) or lujvo
(compound word) on the word {crida} meaning "x1 is a
fairy/elf/gnome/brownie/pixie/goblin/kobold [mythical humanoid] of
mythos/religion x2 [also orc, giant, demon or devil (when
humanoid-form is presumed by the mythos/religion), bugbear,
bogeyman]". When you're ready to propose new compound words you could
suggest some. Until then, just use {crida} for all of them.
   When there is a non-humanoid mythical creature, the word for
"myth", {ranmi}, is used in a compound word with the word for
"animal", [danlu}. This forms {ramda'u} or "mythical animal".
   "God" is {cevni}: "x1 is a/the god/deity of people(s)/religion x2
with dominion over x3 [sphere]."
