I don't remember what that recording was done for, but it's obviously
not a conversation, so I imagine I was reading it.

Since you got "jirna", you could have guessed "pavyseljirna", it's
likely the only context "jirna" has ever been used in.

Yes. Otherwise I wouldn't have used "le", much less "lo'e".

.uacai now that I see it it sounds so obvious. The {'e} from the {lo'e} was
throwing me off. I thought you were going for a {lo xe___} something. And
yes, I've seen the youtube videos and some of the stuff people have recorded
(e.g. sance on jbotcan). Now I kind of want to contribute more / converse
more on mumble etc...

A new years resolution I've set for myself is to be conversational if not
fluent in lojban by the end of the year and that will require hearing a lot
of spoken lojban I think.
