I'm not sure what it means either, which is why I used "lo'u". Procyon is also
the name of a star, fwiw.

Yes it is. {mabryprokiono} would be parsed:
mabry - mabru - mammal
pro - fapro - oppose
kio - no such rafsi - error for ki'o?
no - no room left for a rafsi, so it must be the beginning of the next word.
"A thousand mammal opposers, no..."
A fu'ivla formed from a gismu is glued with r, unless the gismu's last
consonant or the foreign word's first is an r, in which case n or l is used.
