No. No. No. That tells you enough to make morphologically correct lujvo.
That doesn't tell you enough to make lujvo worth making and using and
abusing other people with, which is the point of my original statement.

There isn't some magical treatise which will allow you to start making
reasonable lujvo. The first step is to stop wanting to make lujvo. Then,
when you find you need to do it anyways, and other people think you have
succeeded, you've moved beyond beginnerness.

But the first step is key. Don't worry about lujvo. If you're not putting
complete sentences together with ease, you're not ready to condense things
down into single words.
