History: currently proposed experimental cmavo

Preview of version: 3

See also Obsolete experimental cmavo.

For conciseness, some series of cmavo have been condensed into one entry. In these, V represents the last vowel of the cmavo, and N represents the number in the series (a=1 ... u=5).

(Incidentally, I'd like to ask whoever's proposing these to perhaps let this space be used for new constructs, not just single-word abbreviations for 2-4 other words.) — rab.spir

  • feel free to add links to new pages that subdivide the experimentals into 'new constructs' vs 'abbreviatory'. But this list is a catalogue of all experimental cmavo not declared obsolete by their proposer. --And


|a'a'a|UI|Please repeat; I couldn't parse
|ba'oi|ROI|possible futures ROI: "p (= bridi) in PA possible future worlds (sharing same past as q) in which q (= sumti tagged by ba'oi)": (cf. mu'ei): (proposed by AndR)
|bi'ai|CAhA|must be: modal aspect: necesary attribute
|boi'a...boi'u|KEI|interpreted as if cei brodV were assigned to terminated bridi
|ca'ai|CAhA|"in This World is": (equivalent to but preferable to nau'a). This may be the same as a simple ca'a'' --And
|da'ai|LA|yields sumti functioning as da-series KOhA. (proposed by AndR)
|da'au|NA|bridi tautology: bridi tautology marker; transforms an entire bridi into a tautology
|dau'au|NU|interpreted as if du'au ce'u
|du'au|NU|x1 is a (true?) completion to incomplete proposition expressed by bridi within the abstraction
|fai'a...fai'u|FA|tags sumti that is ur-xN (before SE conversion). And
|fau'a...fau'u|ZOhU|interpreted as if ce'u goi fo'V zo'u if following ka or du'au and as if ke'a goi fo'V zo'u if following poi, noi, voi or poi'i.
|fei'a...fei'u|KU|interpreted as if ku goi fo'V
|foi'a...foi'u|KOhA|adnex-bound pro-sumti
|goi'a|GOI|disambiguates goi's meaning.
|ja'ai|NAI|affirm last word: attached to cmavo to affirm them; denies negation by nai whenever it is applicable.: [Proposed by Mark Shoulson. (mi'e And)]
|jai'a|NA|unequivocally true
|ja'u|BAI|as shown by: jarco modal, 1st place, as shown by...
|ka'ei|CAhA|"in some world is": (equivalent to su'o mu'ei'') --And
|kai'a|NU|interpreted as if ka ce'u
|kau'a...kau'u|ZOhU|interpreted as if ce'u goi ko'V zo'u if following ka or du'au and as if ke'a goi ko'V zo'u if following poi, noi, voi or poi'i.
|kei'a...kei'u|KU|interpreted as if ku goi ko'V
|ki'ai|COI|ejaculative ("damn! shit! bah! yowie!"): (cp krixa, ki'a-): (proposed by AndR)
|ko'ai|LA|yields sumti functioning as ko'a-series KOhA: (proposed by AndR)
|koi'a...koi'u|KOhA|adnex-bound pro-sumti

|la'ei|LA|lo : loi: lo'e
le : lei : le'e
la : lai : la'ei

|lau'a|LE|(ro) lau'a broda = ro lu'a lo klesi be lo'i broda
|lau'e|LE|lau'e broda = lo'e ro lu'a lo klesi be lo'i broda
|lau'i|LE|lau'i broda = lo klesi be lo'i broda
|lau'o|LE|(pi ro) lau'o broda = (pi ro) lu'o (ro lu'a) lo klesi be lo'i broda
|le'ei|LE|Intensional e-gadri [candidate meaning for le'e]
|lei'e|LE|Singularizing e-gadri [candidate meaning for le'e]
|lo'ei|LE|Intensional o-gadri [candidate meaning for lo'e]
|loi'e|LE|Singularizing o-gadri [candidate meaning for lo'e]
|mu'ei|ROI|possible worlds ROI: "p (= bridi) in PA possible worlds in which q (= sumti tagged by mu'ei)": (cp. {munje, mu'e-}): (proposed by AndR)
|nai'a|NA|unequivocally false
|nau'a|CAhA|"in This World is": (but ca'ai'' is equivalent and better) --And
|nei'i|GOhA|current phrase: — like nei, but not restricted to bridi --And
|no'au|GOhA|next outer phrase: — like no'a, but not restricted to bridi --And
|noi'a|NOI|interpreted as if noi ke'a
|nu'oi|CAhA|"in some world but not This World is": (equivalent to but preferable to na'e nau'a or nau'a nai'') --And
|oi'a|I|interpreted as if i la'e di'u
|pa'ei|LE|= da poi ke'a du le(i)'e broda a lo(i)'e broda a le du ku voi ke'a du lo(i)'e broda
|poi'a|NOI|interpreted as if poi ke'a
|poi'ai|NU|interpreted as if poi'i ke'a
|poi'i|NU|x1 is such that poi'i abstraction is true; x1 binds ke'a within the abstraction. [proposed by AndR] Arguably can be abandoned in favour of se ka. See discussion. --And
|ru'ai|KOhA|alternative form for xai that doesn't use up a monosyllabic cmavo. (proposed by AndR.)
|sa'ei|COI|expressive/ideophone ("kapow! kerrang!"): (cp sance): (proposed by AndR.)
|sei'a|SEI|sei'a X sets in force, over text within its scope, nonstandard interpretive conventions specified by X. And
|sei'u|UI|evidential UI, "seemingly, apparently" (< simlu) (< And)
|si'ei|SI|repetition: the following word is the same as the preceding word (proposed by tsali)
|vau'a...vau'u|VAU|interpreted as if cei brodV were assigned to terminated bridi
|voi'a|NOI|interpreted as if voi ke'a
|xa'o|ZAhO|opposite of za'o: event contour: refers to the portion of the event which occurs before the natural beginning; starting too early before ...; <----||
|xai|KOhA|they. Repeats two or more preceding sumti, as ra repeats one. (proposed by Pierre Abbat)
|xei|PA|hex digit E: (because rei is too close to re, while all other numbers are very audibly distinct)
|xe'e|GOI|modal phrase: modal relative phrase marker; attaches sumti modally
|xe'i|???|ago: tense; tags the time interval from or to the reference point
|xi'e|???|non-veridical tense/modal connective:
|xi'i|XIhI|Elidable terminator for xi: removes the ambiguity in multiple subscripts.
|xi'i2|???|narrative connective
|xi'i3|XI|extent of truth
|xo'a|XOhA|Loglan toggle: Toggles text to TLI Loglan; marks following text as TLI Loglan; Lojban equivalent of experimental Loglan "hoa" (which toggles text to Lojban)
|xoi'a|PU|monotonic increase tense; "increasing linearly over time"
|xoi'e|PU|exponential increase tense
|zei'a|PA|(< zenba) following string of digits counts upwards from the units. E.g. zei'a pa re ci vo = 4,321. (< And)
|zo'au|KOhA|begin postnex



Addendum by John:

And's current view of some of these cmavo:

Some of my proposals, such as {sa'ei} are merely useful (in the Swiss army knife sense) rather than indispensable. Those that are very useful and lack any clear intrabaseline alternative are mu'ei, ba'oi, ca'ai, ka'ei, nu'oi.
