This page contains discussions of experimental/scientific/philosophical/logical aspects of Lojban that are non-official and not for everyday usage. You've been warned. |
Eulojban is a subdialect of Lojban; specifically, a subdialect of the ce ki tau jei dialect (thus use of Eulojban presupposes use of ce ki tau jei, and is not meant to duplicate anything already reassigned by CKTJ)
It has one characteristic feature: eu is a valid diphthong in Eulojban. This gives more room for monosyllabic cmavo (and potentially rafsi).
Here are some suggested assignments for this new cmavo space (currently tentative):
- peu : = po'u lo
- neu : = no'u lo
Categorical pronoun set
These are pronouns that can be used to refer to any object of that particular category; like natlang pronouns, their referent may be ambiguous. If disambiguation is needed, there's always goi...
- reu : [KOhA] pronoun: person (prenu)
- deu : [KOhA] pronoun: animal (danlu)
- teu : [KOhA] pronoun: inanimate object, includes plants (dacti jenai danlu)
- feu : [KOhA] pronoun: female (fetsi)
- meu : [KOhA] pronoun: male (nakni)
- zeu : [KOhA] pronoun: place, location (stuzi, mnemonic: zvati / CKTJ-zai)
- seu : [KOhA] pronoun: abstractions, ideas, thoughts (su'u)
- xeu : [KOhA] pronoun: generalized person, "one"/general-you (mnemonic: xanri)
Further crazy ideas for even more space
q might be [ŋ] (idea stolen from Toaq Dzu). [ŋ] is still considered an allophone of n before k/g/x, thus the combinations qk / qg / qx are disallowed.
