This makes me wonder, do the few people that speak Lojban ever tend to skip the last vowel of popular selbri? For instance, do they ever say {pend} instead of {pendo}, or {pram} instead of {prami}?
I would imagine that people who have been speaking/listening awhile might elide them sometimes. {ma cmen do} is one example that I could imagine hearing
I do like having the final letter, don't get me wrong. It's certainly helped me with memorization. But I could see people eliding it while speaking. Is that frowned upon by the community or do people not really care?
