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. -- There is / one art || John Cowan <jcowan@...> no more / no less || http://www.reutershealth.com to do / all things || http://www.ccil.org/~cowan with art- / lessness \\ -- Piet Hein
