totus, I'm stuck at 3. I've been using quizlet and have actually gotten the first 500 gismu (ordered by popularity) down pretty solidly but I've recently hit a wall with words that just don't seem as useful. How many gismu did you learn before you said "ok, enough, any more gismu I will just learn on a need-to-know basis"?

Thanks for asking, Alan. My learning strategy was and is:
1) Study Lojban for Beginners
2) Study CLL
3) Use Quizlet.com to learn vocabulary
4) Read progressively more difficult texts starting with children's
books and request claification from the authors. I'm currently
into Alice in Wonderland, version 2
5) Propose definitions for lujvo in the above texts
6) Go interactive.
I'm currently at 4) and 5).
If your introductory text sells me the benefits of your approach,
that will do for 6).
