[lojban-beginners] Re: coi terdi



coi .teryret.

A lot of us don't like our Lojbanized name (my given name is identical
to yours) and so use assigned names.

My motivations to learn Lojban are described here:

Hello all, just felt like popping in an introducing myself.  I've been
putzing around with lojban for about a month now, but I've not put in the
requisite time to learn the vocab yet.  Hopefully joining this mailing list
will motivate me to fix that little problem.



A little about me: I'm in school going for a CS degree, I'm into karate,
computers, playing around with gadgets and new things, and hopefully I'll
soon be bilingual.



I've been wondering; what motivated all of you to learn lojban?  I've been
trying to pressure my brother into it, but he's a bit lethargic.



Oh, and another thing, what's the general culture like with respect to
assigning yourself a lojban name rather than simply translating over the
sounds of your given first name?
