Mmm... I like illegal! :)

It still has the problem of being potentially confusing for speakers
of some languages, but from a purely Lojbanic perspective it's a great
way to get rid of the place structure of djedi.

Could we do something similar for months?

mu'o mi'e xorxes

{masti} only has a cv'v form rafsi, so we couldn't do thee same thing as for {djeNN}, as in make a fake gismu. It would be {ma'ipa} et al., which break up into {ma'i NN}. We could do {.ma'ipav.} et al., and go into the hex digits for 10 - 12, assuming they have rafsi.

In other news, jbofi'e has absolutely no idea what any of {djepa djere djeci djevo djemu djexa djebi djeno} mean, but it parses them as gismu, so we could use them. They also have the advantage of being more liked by me than {pavdei} et al., and freeing those lujvo to mean what .xorxes. wants them to. :D

So, assuming a large portion of jbogugde likes my latest idea, I propose we make the following:

{djeNN} "x1 is day of week NN"

Unless someone else has a better definition idea, and submit it to jbovlaste.
