Meaning of cmene | Babel Free

Noun CEFR B1
/ˈʃme.ne/

Definitions

A proper name, or proper noun, respelled according to Lojban rules; reckoned as a part of speech separate from brivla (content words) and cmavo (function words).

Examples

“Cmene are always written with a period at the end, and if they start with a vowel then also with a period at the beginning.”
“These minor restrictions are due to the fact that all Lojban cmene embedded in a speech stream will be preceded by one of these words or by a pause. With one of these words embedded, the cmene might break up into valid Lojban words followed by a shorter cmene.”
“I removed from the frequency list all cmene and unknown lujvo and cmavo.”
“cmene always end with a consonant followed by a mandatory pause (a period). No other Lojban word ends with a consonant.”
