Re: [lojban] Etymology of future gismu (if they are to be created)



>>Remember that a word has to match at least 2 letters (and if only 2, 
they must be in the right place) in order to contribute to a Lojban 
recognition score. 

>>Portuguese would probably significantly reinforce Spanish, perhaps 
enough to enable it to match English in weight, but otherwise would 
never make any contribution. 

>>Indonesia wouldn't reinforce anything except where it uses a borrowed 
word, and thus would have even less effect than Arabic. 

If Portuguese (and may be other Romanian languages) can reinforce Spanish
and Bengali can do that with Hindi then what's the problem?
And a lower recognition score is just the output of the script and nothing more, just a number. But who knows, may be experimental gismu with lower recognition scores can be easier to learn then gismu based on fewer source languages?
