The default order in which topics are presented in the CLL, the comprehensive Lojban manual/textbook/guide, seems a bit illogical, when first encountered by a beginner. This sparked, in #lojban, a discussion about a more beginner-friendly order, which resembles:
- Chapter 13.1-13.10
- Chapter 6 (beware of 6.12 (dotside), and 6.2-6.9 (xorlo))
- Chapter 17.1-17.12
- Chapter 19 (beware of 19.13 (erasure))
- Chapter 12
- Chapter 16 (Logical quantifiers, difficult material)
- Chapter 17.13-17.20
- Not at all necessary Chapter 18 (mekso - may be dropped from the language)
- Useful Chapter 20 (selma'o liste)
- Not for the eyes of all Chapter 21 (Formal grammars)
Points containing the mention beware or difficult should be read with a grain of salt; investing some time on Lojban's IRC will certainly clear things up, not to mention that Lojbanist irci give lessons in #ckule and (especially in the beginning to work on pronunciation) by means of Mumble, Ventrilo and Skype.
