I think the main problem here is one
of semantics between you two. A "hyphen" in lojban has a very
specific meaning. It's a leter that glues two things together into one single
word, such as "y" between disallowed consonant pairs, or "r"
joining two CVV rafsi, or "r","n" or "l" gluing
the front part of a fui'vla to the back part. A period is nothing more or less
than a required pause in speaking. la.djak.kenedis is exactly the same as la
djak. kenedis. (or, in simplified writing, "la djak kenedis") A
"la" can be followed by any number of cmevla, turning them all into a
single name That's why la ja.jak.rusol is not allowed, because "ja"
isn't a cmevla --gejyspa From:
