[lojban] Re: Chemical elements

[lojdjis <petxd086@googlemail.com>]

I won't support my idea of "xukmifu'e" ... anymore.

We can use ISO-codes  by saying "obu" for Oxygen just as chemicists do
in European languages (well, in English they say [ou] for Oxygen). But
we need some converter that will transform such string  into element/
formula/chemical reaction.

So when saying

2HOH + 2Na ⇔ 2NaOH + H2

we need

    * some converter

    * quotes

    * xebu, obu, nyabu for elements (well, no questions here)

    * a valsi for ⇔

Please help me read aloud this reaction.

Also we will need in future

a valsi for

¹H                       (isotope)


     2+
Ca                       (ion)


There are "te'a" and "ju'u" but they won't do (they are from math).

I absolutely agree that tanru is inappropriate. We should follow
IUPAC, not fight it.

"relmetlygilbutli" etc. is the only way.

At first, we should download "Complete IUPAC Grammar" if such book
exists.
