To show that, I added a tag to my email signature a while back, in English. Then I started wondering what it should be in Lojban. I asked on the Wiki ( http://nuzban.wiw.org/wiki/index.php?email%20copies%20appreciated%2C%20since %20I%20read%20the%20digest or look for "email copies appreciated, since I read the digest") and got a couple of suggestions. Using those and my original idea, I came up with what you now see at the bottom of this message (which also fits in fewer than 72 characters, which I consider a good thing). Is it grammatically and semantically correct? I haven't been doing Lojban for that long, and I'm especially unsure about the difference between things such as le/lo/lei/loi; lenu/leka/ledu'u/lesu'u; ki'u/mu'i; correct attitudinals; and so on. I used some cmavo which were not in the suggested phrases (e.g. {ki'u} instead of {mu'i}, {le du'u} instead of {lenu}), but I think they fit better. Suggestions and corrections are welcome. mu'omi'e filip.
