The Crash Course in Lojban

The Crash Course method
The symbol of The Crash Course: nature and logic

The Crash Course is a course being written by la gleki by combining the feedback of people learning or speaking Lojban into a tutorial. You read it, report bugs or ask questions and get replies from the author or knowledgable Lojbanists, answers to your questions get included into the course.

  • The course tries not to use Lojbanic terminology much. It explains most Lojbanic terms in ordinary language that the learner uses from birth or school. This principle brings Lojban to people, rather than dragging people into Lojban. It adapts the teaching method to the language the student uses in everyday life. For example, for speakers of English (and most languages of Europe) The Crash Course method calls brivla "verbs", calls sumti "nouns". Although, such terms as "noun" and "verb" can mean different things in different languages they are fine for initially explaining how Lojban works.
  • The course has a compact dictionary as an addendum that gives examples for the most commonly used verbs and particles.

The intended finalization of this course are years 2017 - 2019. Until then minor bugs can be found in it but the course is mostly already usable.
