Beginners' lujvo

I notice that there has been some discussion of proposed lujvo from
"beginners" on the list recently (I'm afraid my reading of the list has
been pretty sporadic of late, due to holidays, start of academic year
etc.).  I actually think having people new to the language coining lujvo
is an excellent way to develop the language, despite the large number of
dud lujvo that will inevitably arise.  Having said that, here are my
contributions ...

If anyone would care to guess the intended meanings, correct any
misformation, and provide a suitable place structure, I'd be most
grateful.

These lujvo came up as a result of trying to find lojban equivalents for
a list of basic vocabulary I'm using to teach my wife English - I
thought I might as well kill two birds with one stone and use the same
list to expand my lojban.  It actually says much for the selection of
the gismu list that 67 of the 80 basic terms I've selected so far have
gismu equivalents.

One word I had problems with, possibly because it is so culturally
specific, was "teenager".  I had thought of "citmakcu", but this would
be simply "young adult" and could include, depending on culture, anyone
from 15 to 30.  Any suggestions?
