[lojban-beginners] Nick-cmevla



Many (and I suppose most) languages provide the ability of mentioning
someone using a kind form of the name which can be attained by
cutting off the end of it and/or putting a formative to the end. E. g.:
Amy,
Danny,
Mama*ka (I dunno how to write cyrillic letters. 8-\),
Olympiad.
 
Popular formatives are -i, -y, -ka or -d, depending on the language.
 
I'm curious about the Lojbanic convention to do the same.
