History: BPFK Section: lerfu

The selma'o BY2 is comprised principally of letterals representing consonants and contains the following cmavo: ||by|cy|dy|fy|gy|jy|ky|ly|my|ny|py|ry|sy|ty|vy|xy|.y'y|zy|| The selma'o BY* is comprised of vowel letterals, punctuation, and other "oddball" letterals, the common theme being that they're all constructed with the lerfu-forming cmavo bu: ||.abu|denpa bu|.ebu|.ibu|joibu|.obu|slaka bu|.ubu|.uibu|.ybu|zo'obu|| The purpose of these cmavo, as with all lerfu, is to enable the spelling of words and discussion referring to written characters. They can also be used as variables in (and out of) mekso. !!Lojbanic Standard Roman Orthography Lerfu These are used to represent symbols used in the writing of lojban. The following are lerfu for which the definition and keyword are obvious: ||.abu|by|cy|dy|.ebu|fy|gy|.ibu|jy|ky|ly|my|ny|.obu|py|ry|sy|ty|.ubu|vy|xy|.ybu|zy .y'y|| There are two more which have slightly more complex keywords: ||denpa bu|BY*|__pause symbol__ | letteral: Lojban "." character|| ||slaka bu|BY*|__comma symbol__ | letteral: Lojban "," character|| It should be noted that the current keyword for slaka bu is "close-comma", but I don't see a need for anything more that "comma" unless someone can demonstrate a "far-comma" or an "open-comma" that's likely to cause confusion. !!Other Lerfu These are miscellaneous lerfu. This committeeman questions the usefulness as official cmavo, but does not suggest their official removal. ||joibu|BY*|__&__|letteral: ampersand character; especially used in standing for a mixed connective|| ||.uibu|BY*|__happy face__|letteral: happiness symbol|| ||zo'obu|BY*|__smiley face__|letteral: humor symbol, ":-)" and its related forms expressing humor|| Once again, it should be noted that the current definitions of .uibu and zo'obu are a bit redundant, in that they have "(letteral)" at the end.
