Re: [lojban] Re: a different weekday proposal

[Frank <frankdmartinez@gmail.com>]

Is there an official start date for Lojban?  We could use that as the "1"-day and construct names which say "1 of 7"-day or "7 of 9"-day, depending on how many days One has in One's culture's week.  To clarify, the names would be of the form "A of B"-day, where "B" is the number of days in a week and "A" is the Ath day of that cycle.  Granted, if One uses a calendar system, for example, with a standard 7 day week with the occasional 4 day week thrown in for one reason or another, this may cause some difficulties but I think We could burn that bridge when We get to it.

  Okay here is my proposal (starting on Wednesday in a foolhardy
attempt to be culturally neutral)

zarskugejyspadei ( Wednesday)
kirgejyspadei (Thursday)
lejgejyspadei (Friday)
djugejyspadei (Saturday)
cevgaugejyspade (Sunday)
pukygejyspadei (Monday)
kelkangejyspadei (Tuesday)

I'm sure everyone can see how this sytem is logical, culturally
neutral, easy to remember, and benefical to the jobce'u.  I expect it
to be universaaly adopted forthwith.
