View page
Source of version: 4
(current)
When worrying about whether or not a word is legal, please recall that all brivla must be stressed on the second to last syllable. "__((nice fu'ivla forms))__" are those forms that don't contain VVV, CC/C or CCCC groups, which can never appear in lujvo, and start with one or two consonants. These nice forms are the ones that sit most comfortably among native Lojban forms. 4-letter fu'ivla *VCCV iglu alga (in all cases where CC is allowed non-initially, C/C is also allowed. Those are not listed separately. 5-letter fu'ivla *CCVVV praia *CCCVV spra'i (VV can't be a diphthong) *VCCVV ostoi *VCCCV astro *VVCCV uiski Notably, CCVCV and CVCCV aren't present in the above list, as those are the forms used by gismu. 6-letter fu'ivla *__CVVC/CV__ ma'agni *CVCC/CV saprka *CCVVVV brai'oi *__CCVVCV__ tce'exo *CCCVVV stroia *CCCCVV tsmla'i (VV can't be a diphthong) (camxes won't like this form because of the initial cluster) *VC/CVVV iksoia *VC/CVCV odbenu *VCCCVV astroi (VV must be a diphthong) *VC/CCVV aksroi *VCC/CVV asrkoi *VCCCCV astrgo *VVCCVV iandau *VVCCCV iastro *VVVCCV uaisto 7-letter fu'ivla *CVVVCCV sa'aispa *__CVVCCVV__ saispai (the second C can't be 'r' or 'nr') *__CVVCCCV__ saispra (the second C can't be 'r' or 'nr') *CVC/CVVV sarpaia *__CVC/CVCV__ sarpasa *__CVCCCVV__ sasprai (VV must be a diphthong) *__CVC/CCVV__ sarprai *CVCC/CVV sabrpai *CVCCCCV satspra *CCVVVVV spaiaia *CCVVVCV spaiapa *__CCVVC/CV__ spaipsa *CCVCVVV spapaia *__CCVCVCV__ spapapa *CCVCC/CV spaprka *CCCVVVV spraiai *CCCVVCV spraika *CCCVC/CV jglandi *CCCCVVV tsmlaia (dubious initial cluster) *CCCCVCV tsmlatu (dubious initial cluster) *CCCCCVV stsmla'u ''(stsml?
