Lojban: ko fapro le nu bangu nuncabnalza'i
        you-IMPV oppose the event-of language event-of:current:non:existing

        .isemu'ibo ko finti lo bangu
        [new sentence motivated by last sentence] you-IMPV invent a language

> English:   Invent a language!
Lojban: ko finti lo bangu (same as last 4 words of longer version)

The Latin orthography is used (though Cyrillic has been used as well, and Tengwar
is a theoretical possibility).  Please note that the "." in ".isemu'ibo" is part
of the spelling, and there are no punctuation marks such as periods at the end of
sentences.
