Re: [lojban] Re: End vowel for slot?



It's a relex in the broad sense of a one-to-one correspondence between the parts of words. 

The first syllable of a word is its semantic classifier, which for lujvo is usually the same as for the main word of the tanru it's based on. 

I changed the lujvo rules and the morphology (phonology too, but that didn't show in the example). Whether it's still self-segregating or not, I don't know (and don't much care). 

It helped alleviate my frustration with Lojban gismu.

All my gismu (noglo) are CVCCV, where the initial CV is a semantic classifier and the rest is the unique rafsi. 

Two examples to illustrate how I form lujvo (nonla).

1) From "brajmadegycalku" (barda jamfu degji calku), 'big toe nail', 
I get su-njo bi-bla bi-gdo bu-dza => budza-gdo-bla-njo. 

2) From "rilpemsa'a" (rilti pemci sanga), 'perform rap music', 
I get no-bre no-xma pe-jma => pejma-xma-bre. 

stevo

How could I have expected anything less elegant than that? .u'i

For the first lujvo, wouldn't it be possible to write "dza-gdo-bla-njo", since dz is initial-permissible? And for the latter, wouldn't it be "pejmy-xma-bre"?
Unless you have changed the lujvo rules or the morphology, in which case this is more than just a relex.
