Ron Hale-Evans, who authored/organized the wonderful O'Reilly book "Mind Performance Hacks", has asked me to write a chapter on .cniglic. (Lojban's attitudinals applied to English text) for the upcoming sequel, "Mind Agility Hacks"!
I'm going to give a brief introduction to the 39 attitudinal scales, as well as the ro'X, bu'o, pei, dai, ge'e, and perhaps a few other words. Also I'm going to talk about spelling out attitudinals with ASL fingerspelling (leave off dots and say apostrophe as H, in short).
I would very much appreciate any input, suggestions, and other
assistance.
We already owe Ron some gratitude for writing Lojban a very nice blurb in "Mind Performance Hacks", Hack #51 "Learn an Artificial Language", where he featured Esperanto, Lojban, Klingon, AllNoun, and Solresol. One thing he said about us was, "In short, Lojban is a kind of super-language designed to shoot off your Sapir-Whorfean linguistic shackles and blow your mind open. Give it a try." Not a bad review. Hopefully this new chapter will be good publicity for Lojban as well.
