Maybe {no'obu}? And what might {su'obu}, {robu}, etc. be? >Test question: when you write out what is said as {abu prami by} is the >written form exactly the same or is it {a prami b}? It's either exactly the same or it is {A prami B}, never {a prami b}. >Why? Because otherwise we would not be able to tell appart {mi} from {MI} = {my.ibu}. >What about the Lojban for "CIA"? {CIA} = {cy.ibu.abu} is a pronoun. The name of the agency might be lojbanized as {la cias}, {la si,ai,eis} or something else. mu'o mi'e xorxes _________________________________________________________________ Chat with friends online, try MSN Messenger: http://messenger.msn.com
