If that's the case, great! I've often wondered about how best to replace the guaspi tone system with something else, and I presume CV's would be the way to go.Baloohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08245765878554696634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4352465546225864162.post-9825908498092553682013-03-21T23:21:43.482-07:002013-03-21T23:21:43.482-07:00Note that Loglan compared to Lojban may have some ...Note that Loglan compared to Lojban may have some drawbacks in it's definitions like two separate words for toes and fingers (where Ceqli and Lojban have one word, {fiq} and {degji} respectively). So definitions should be added with care. Analysing guaspi vocabulary is also a must.glekihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01614315407986267043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4352465546225864162.post-73339450234584231132013-03-21T22:14:12.080-07:002013-03-21T22:14:12.080-07:00It's better to start relexing gua\spi into Ceq...It's better to start relexing gua\spi into Ceqli now. It'll result in a language that will be grammatically 90% curren Ceqli. In spoken language it'll be 99% current Ceqli. So no major changes to the grammar will be needed. I don't want to write anything as I don't like guaspic phonology. But if you finish your basic dictionary I might relex guaspi into Ceqli. So I suggest just continue this important work.glekihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01614315407986267043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4352465546225864162.post-76547406082356792552013-03-21T13:01:25.380-07:002013-03-21T13:01:25.380-07:00Like, if somebody could just explain the "Gra...Like, if somebody could just explain the "Grammar by Tones" section starting here (scroll down to it) and going on to the end of the page. <br /><a href="http://www.math.ucla.edu/~jimc/guaspi/grammar.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.math.ucla.edu/~jimc/guaspi/grammar.html</a><br />I simply can't follow it.
