Does Loglan have this sort of construct?I am not sure what is meant by 'coi' so I cannot answer this. If it were our Hoi, it would be hoi lanam.{coi} is "hello". In Lojban, a name may immediately follow it, as may la + a name.
The equivalent of 'Hello' in Loglan would not be used with la nor would Goodbye, Please and Thank you if attached to a name, but I think there is a natural tendency for a short pause after these words
