Related cmene would be 'la kraixas' for the Caribbean >Sea and 'la kraicem' for the Caricom (Caribbean Community). Please comment. I am not sure what you would define as the "Caribbean" culture. My own preference for lujvo over borrowings would lead me to a lujvo based on bemro daplu or xispo daplu (or the reverse order). For the British West Indies culture (which I suspect is different from the Hispanic Caribbean culture) you could use brito bemro daplu. lojbab ---- lojbab lojbab@lojban.org Bob LeChevalier, President, The Logical Language Group, Inc. 2904 Beau Lane, Fairfax VA 22031-1303 USA 703-385-0273 Artificial language Loglan/Lojban: http://www.lojban.org (newly updated!)
