[lojban] Re: le nikle gerku



wait, so the syllables of tcidu are "tcid" and "u".  I would think that they were "tci" and "du".  Is it also "klam" - "a"?

Is there some formal definition for how syllables work in lojban?

1)  the main selbri of a bridi must start with the same phoneme that the previous main selbri ended in (e.g.  mi tcidu lo cukta .i do dunli lo gerku)


In this example it looks like the "du" of "tcidu" was carried over to the "du" of "dunli".  But the last phoneme of "tcidu" is "u", not "du", which is its last syllable.
