This is an attempt to get a vocabulary list in an order suitable for learning. Simply using the frequency lists is one way of getting started, but that is heavily biased by having been drawn from early discussions of lojban itself, hence the words sumti, selbri and other lojbanic terms are overly represented.

Please, one gismu only, what one gismu would you suggest a person learn? Please add it to this table:

lojban gismu	English keyword
troci	try	ColinWright
djuno	know	kolin.rait
dunda	give	xorxes
mutce	much	eppkott
cusku	express	betsemes
djica	desire	filip
sidju	help	bobgrif
drata	other	cuncuxnas
zasti	exist	uirik
gleki	happy	komfo,amonan

And add your recommended cmavo here:

lojban cmavo	English gloss
le .. ku	the described	ColinWright
be .. bei .. be'o	linked sumti	kolin.rait
cu	separates selbri from preceding terms	xorxes
ma	sumti question mark	eppkott
mi	me	betsemes
xu	true-false ?	filip
mo	bridi question mark	bobgrif
mi'e	self-introduction	cuncuxnas
nu	event abstract	uirik
to'e	polar opposite	komfo,amonan

Should we sign? Does it help? Does it matter?
