Re: [lojban] Isomorphism in lo cmalu noltru

I have in the past used a text-to-speech engine (for English) to make poor man's audiobooks of fanfiction and similar for listening on road trips. The better engines insert good pauses between sequences of quotations, but it's still sometimes hard to tell, and it makes the story difficult to follow, especially if the back-and-forth is swift.

I would prefer your option b) over a).

I have a question regarding audio-visual isomorphism in lo cmalu noltru.
> [... li'o sa'a]
Should "—" here be considered a "forethought" pair of «lu li'u»? I'm
tending towards reading it that way.

I'd really like to get some opinions on this.

Would you prefer


— .i lo nolraitru cu ponse nagi'e turni .i mutce frica
— .i ma do prali lo nu do ponse lo tarci

to be _read_ as:


a)

.i lo nolraitru cu ponse nagi'e turni .i mutce frica
.i ma do prali lo nu do ponse lo tarci

(that is, no indication of speaker change whatsoever)

or b)
.i «lu lo nolraitru cu ponse nagi'e turni .i mutce frica li'u»
.i «lu ma do prali lo nu do ponse lo tarci li'u»

or c)
some other way (in which case I'd like to know how).
