I've heard that but it seems unlikely, since it presupposes they knew it was an island, which is rather unlikely. But OK, but where is the Island part (you have {danlu} "animal", not {daplu} -- welcome to typing class; I'm in my 47th year). What hair-plant? did I say something about one? or is this a question about how to say it (and, if so why?) and do you mean like a plug for baldness treatment or do you mean a vegetable with hairiness somehow? Ahah! The y is needed in {cakyrespa} ala tosmabru -- I never get that rule right! (Actually, I never remember to check that rule at all, it being one of the major inelegances left over from JCB's great morphological revolution that Lojban was never able to correct). <canji ki'a?> {canja} I wish I could plead typing, but this is just interference from some other stage of the language. |
