??  {prenu} is a cmene?  Presumably the spacing has come out strange;
{turkie} should have been {turkies} or something like that.  I normally use
a fu'ivla like {gugdrturkie}, {kulnrturkie}.  Incidentally, I've Lojbanised
"Turkey" like this because

  - {turki} can't be a fu'ivla because it has CVCCV structure.
  - the name of the country is "Türkiye", which by strict Lojbanisation
would be {TIRki,ie} which is orthographically unhelpful.  {turkie} comes
close enough to some pronunciations, and is easier to recognise for Turks
and non-Turks alike (reverse the last two letters and you get the German,
for example).
