Ignoring cmavo for a bit, brivla are the words that end in a vowel, and cmevla end in a consonant. 20 Jan 2010 13:48:47 < feliks> it happens that klaji has no short rafsi ending in a vowel, so i thought it could be used for the rear part of a compound name 20 Jan 2010 13:49:14 < xalbo> cmevla have no meaning attached to them, they just have a sound, and can be used as names for anything you like. 20 Jan 2010 13:50:01 < xalbo> It *is* possible to create a lujvo-like cmevla, by combining rafsi and ending in a vowel, but it loses its meaning when you do so. 20 Jan 2010 13:50:38 < xalbo> {.lojban.} just happens to have been created from the -loj- and -ban- rafsi of {logji} and {bangu}, respectively. 20 Jan 2010 13:51:26 < feliks> so it makes no sense to create a name that resembles the sound of something whose meaning is "milky way"? 20 Jan 2010 13:51:40 < xalbo> But the problem is that there is no meaning. {.cmacis.} is just a word, just empty sounds. Could be be related to {cmaci} (math)? Could it be related to {cmalu crisa}? It's just sound. 20 Jan 2010 13:52:11 < Melvar> I was asking myself which of the two it was… 20 Jan 2010 13:53:37 < xalbo> Although I'll admit I'm being opinionated on this topic; obviously the Elders thought it wasn't that bad, since they used that style for the name of the language itself. 20 Jan 2010 13:56:02 * Melvar thinks they know something. 20 Jan 2010 13:58:48 < Melvar> Apparently the produced names are valid, they just don’t have meaning within the language. Neither do most English names that I know of; you have to follow the etymology, often passing through several languages, to find the original words and meaning the name developed from. 20 Jan 2010 14:00:29 < Melvar> Producing names based on Lojban words seems to me much the same process, just with the etymological path shorter and perhaps more transparent. 20 Jan 2010 14:00:31 < xalbo> Oh yes, that sort of name is perfectly legal. I'm just objecting to pretending that they're lujvo. 20 Jan 2010 14:00:54 < xalbo> Of course, it's also legal to use selbri (brivla, for instance) as names. 20 Jan 2010 14:00:59 < feliks> well, "milky way" in english isn't supposed to have literal meaning. if i left it at "ladru klaji", strictly, wouldn't that be impossible in lojban as a descriptor for our galaxy? 20 Jan 2010 14:00:59 < xalbo> .i mi'e la xalbo 20 Jan 2010 14:01:37 < Melvar> The end result is, in any case, a name. Perhaps it is possible to metalinguistically deduce the origin and thereby the referent of the name, but it does not itself have the meaning of its origin. 20 Jan 2010 14:01:50 < feliks> ok... i wasn't precise. no meant to say it's a lujvo, just was made out of one in the process 20 Jan 2010 14:02:11 * Melvar looks back at their words and thinks that maybe they shouldn’t have said that. 20 Jan 2010 14:02:51 < xalbo> {la ladru klaji} is and {la .ladlaj.} are both valid names, of different sorts (the pedant in me is screaming, and I'll qualify the heck out of that in a minute). 20 Jan 2010 14:03:27 < xalbo> Specifically, {ladru klaji} and {.ladlaj.} are the names, {la ladjru klaji} and {la .ladlaj.} are the things named. 20 Jan 2010 14:04:03 < xalbo> Also, there's a little thing called "the Dot Side", which amounts to the rule: "Always put dots before and after cmevla, always." 20 Jan 2010 14:04:48 < feliks> ki'anai 20 Jan 2010 14:06:39 < xalbo> Before Dot Side, the rules were more complicated (and included a restriction on including the letter sequences "la", "lai", and "doi" inside cmevla. 20 Jan 2010 14:06:40 < feliks> gee, i forgot the "la" in "ladlaj", since "dl" is not a forbidden cluster 20 Jan 2010 14:07:32 < xalbo> A forbidden cluster would only get you into more trouble, and {ladlaj} has *two* occurrences of "la". 20 Jan 2010 14:08:02 < feliks> k that trashes it anyways 20 Jan 2010 14:08:30 < xalbo> But the Dot Side is what lets us get away from that rule. Provided that all cmevla everywhere are preceded and followed by dots, we can go ahead and allow "la", "lai", and "doi" inside cemvla. 20 Jan 2010 14:09:20 < feliks> indeed? ah cool, didn't see that in the books so far 20 Jan 2010 14:10:28 -!- kribacr [i=42c07e03@gateway/web/freenode/x-smzvbuhmgymfruwt] has quit [Client Quit] 20 Jan 2010 14:10:35 < xalbo> Yeah, it's newer than the books. 20 Jan 2010 14:10:57 < feliks> but not experimental? 20 Jan 2010 14:11:34 < xalbo> Technically, experimental.
