Bison, from Old Norse visundar (pl.), which is from the Germanic source of
Latin "bison". The original says "buffalo", but the American buffalo is a
bison.

What is the audiovisual isomorph of changing speakers?

Well, I would think at least {.i lu [...] li'u} is pretty much required for transcription of dialog in a story. But thinking a bit about your question I came up with the following odd convention, which seems to parse:

.i lu xi re ma cmene? li'u
.i lu xi pa lu zugdze bakni li'u li'u
.i lu xi re sinma ko'a do'e ma? li'u
.i lu xi pa ko'a selsi'a sai! .i ko'a se patfu la fenki xirma noi jatna ro le siksika li'u
