Are there forbidden also if last vovel in dangerous sylabelle is part of diphtong or vovel pair? For example, are cmene 'laumer' and "la'adan" legal or not? 2) What is official status of (pseudo-)cmavo with letter 'y' outside ".y.", "y'y" and "Cy"? I mean "ca'y" and so on... Are they just a cmavo without assignied meaning, or are they experimental (like xa'a), ore are they morphologically illegal? 3) As jc and lojbab recently written, 'r' hyphen is either required or forbidden. Is this also true for 'y' hyphen? For example, is lujvo lile 'samypli' legal? I'm sorry for a lot of typos - I'm on slow unrelayable modem link now. -- Cyril Slobin
