CLL: "There are just 48 such permissible initial consonant pairs, as follows: bl br cf ck cl cm cn cp cr ct dj dr dz fl fr gl gr jb jd jg jm jv kl kr ml mr pl pr sf sk sl sm sn sp sr st tc tr ts vl vr xl xr zb zd zg zm zv"
Firstly, I don't see {rs} listed as one of the 48 permissible initial consonant pairs although there are gismu like {jursa} and {darsi} etc. Also there are lujvo in the lujvo list which also
use {rs} as an initial consonant pair: {jaurselylu'i}, {jirsezlu'i}, {ki'orsamsrorau}, {varsenta}. Not only that, but I am able to also find other lujvo in the "current" lujvo list that appear to violate the initial consonant pair rule, such as {kamsorselmanri}.
Second, for a potential lujvo (one I created) such as {varsetvro} for "airlock", the triple of {tvr} seems permissible because it is not one of the four excluded triples and because {vr} is a permissible initial pair. But jbofi'e will not accept {varsetvro} although it will accpet {varsetyvro} for some reason. Notice it also accepts the initial consonant pair {rs} as well. So if {varsetvro} it not a valid lujvo, why
not?
