Re: [lojban] CLLv1.1 goes out on Monday, 12 Oct 2015

[Timothy Lawrence <timothy.lawrence@connect.qut.edu.au>]

I have been briefly reviewing the CLL version at http://vrici.lojban.org/~rlpowell/media/public/cll_nochunks_2015-10-05/#section-pronunciation

The main feedback I have is to be sure that its suggestion of pronunciation is correct, especially for "o".

The text seems to make assumptions about the reader's dialect of English.
The section on pronunciation says "o as in “dome”" but my dialect of English pronounces "dome" as http://howjsay.com/index.php?word=dome&submit=Submit (i.e. a diphthong, which is incorrect). This may result in many readers learning the wrong pronunciation of Lojban.

I mentioned this issue also existing in the "Level 0 Booklet" publication in my "Pronunciation of "o"" email to the lojban-beginners group. There must be a better example word that has the correct "o" for all dialects of English.

So this is CLLv1.1: is this only for fixing errata? How much content is subject to change? Is there a schedule for the second edition? https://mw.lojban.org/papri/suggestions_for_CLL,_second_edition

I'm finishing a review of Chapter 19, but it's otherwise done and I
expect to have that done shortly.

So, if you need me to wait because you're reviewing it, now would be
a *very* good time to say so.  I can, of course, always update it
later.
