Don't be foolish. I was un-Lojbanizing the name, suggesting that there just I wish you'd mentioned that you were unlojbanizing, since the rest was lojbanized, I asssume dthat this was meant to be too. Someone with a name like that would, of course, in Lojban, have a quite distinctive name, which was my point -- also rather obliquely. That is, {paVOson REnanc} is not likely to be confused with {pavosoREnanc} -- or it should not be. The use with {ca} or {ca'o} or whatever time operator you use would also count against this (though it could mean "during the lifetime of" apparently). I still don't see the point, unless it is just that using year names is yucky, which I agree with (for all they are convenient). |
