Now I'm wondering if that is okay! (since there is no rafsi "mas" of {masti} - nor "cac" for {cacra}!). Would {la dauma'i} be better (although without a consonant ending)? Or just import a cmene like la oktobr. ??? (not too good an idea) or create a lujvo with the drawback that cmavo {dau/fei/gai} are not permitted: {pavma'i} up to {sovma'i} could work, but then? {pavno?ma'i} .aulun.
