Re: [lojban] cmavo and the gismu like them

[Jameson Orndorff <jtorndorff@gmail.com>]

I'm not certain of such a list existing, but I wouldn't recommend such
a list for super new students. It will cause confusion and false
expectation, especially when you get rafsi involved. For intermediate
students who have better core knowledge of cmavo vs. rafsi, etc, it
should be fine. (Trust me, this crops up often.) There are quite a few
of these pairs, however, and they definitely do help you remember.
