Brivycme are names (typically prefixed by la) that take the form of brivla instead of cmevla. Some brivycme may take the form of words that do not have a defined meaning otherwise.

They are often preferred for calqued / translated (rather than transliterated) names, as they do not require pauses, and won't cause possible ambiguity between consonant-final rafsi and added final consonants. (e.g. is la .mamtas. derived from mamta, or mamta tansi?)

As brivycme cannot currently be entered into jbovlaste, here is a list of common brivycme used (feel free to add more, but keep the alphabetical order)

  • la dontu'u : YouTube (video-sharing website)
  • la dzapre : "Someone", the god of lazy people
  • la faglo'u : Firefox (web browser)
  • la flicku : Facebook (social media website)
  • la gadganzu: The zipcpi:_Yet_another_gadri_article gadganzu proposal
  • la jbovlaste: Jbovlaste, community-maintained Lojban dictionary
  • la kakpyzba : Minecraft (game)
  • la lobyuitki: This very wiki
  • la romge : Chrome (web browser)
