I don't see "selkliru" coming into common usage.  I have assumed that
the appropriate words would be "kliru" <-> "chlorine" and "klirypoi" <->
"halogen".  Perhaps, a lujvo should be used to enforce the default.

{klirypoi} can mean "halogen group", but not "halogen". {klirypoicmi}
would be "halogen":

 lo kliru cu klirypoicmi
 Chlorine is a halogen.

 lo li'orkliru cu klirypoicmi
 Fluorine is a halogen.

 lo xunkliru cu klirypoicmi
 Bromine is a halogen.
