Re: [lojban] la .alis.
For some reason, the accented letters got replaced by weird letter
combinations. Her's the same text with capitals instead:

Thank you, la selpa'i. I will investigate that. If Jorge and you
agree on it, I have no reasonable doubts.
I guess that glottal-stopping is not wrong, though? I prefer it that
way.
Inserting glottal stops between words is always allowed.
Does not {la uiski ui} otherwise become /lau,iskiu,i/, with confusing
diphthongs? Is that desirable?
That cannot happen. The stress is on the first syllable of "uiski":
{la UIski ui}. If you leave out the spaces, you get {laUIskiui}, which
can only fragment into la UIski ui because:
1) "laUIski" can't be a single word, because the stress is on UIski,
and the la falls off due to tosmabru
2) the trailing "ui" can not be part of uiski because again the stress
makes everything after the next syllable fall off. Also, the u of "ui"
cannot be part of uiski (*"uiskiu") because that's not a legal word
(remember that it would have to be pronounced [wiskiw], which is
illegal. And the i couldn't possibly be seperate either, because [i]
alone doesn't constitute a legal lojban word, as Lojban words can't
begin in a vowel.
