Actually, according to Webster's Collegiate (http:/m-w.com)brow: 1b. ForeheadThe mebri is the part of the head between the eyebrows and the hairline. Perhaps you are thinking about "eyebrow", which is not the same thing?
tupcidni for knee is fine (usually tuple is thought of as the default x2 because of the English gloss forcidni, but there is nothing wrong with a specific word)For palm, I'd probably say xancra, although I wonder if that's not culturally neutral?

For stomach I'll go with {stomaxu}. Ancient lojbanists couldn't know that it is actually a {slamycanti} (they had no idea of how the food is digested).--
