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. (Often they are nonce-lujvo, but they may even take the form of non-existent gismu or zi'evla if they happen to be aesthetically pleasing)

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, abbrev. gygy : The gadganzu proposal
  • la jbo'irci : The official Lojban IRC channel
  • la jbouitki : This very wiki
  • la jbovlaste, abbrev. jyvysy : Jbovlaste, community-maintained Lojban dictionary
