Appendix:Lojban/gliban.

Lojban

Etymology

Formed from rafsi gli (glico) and ban (bangu). The cmene form of this word (that is, ending in a consonant) is used specifically for the language itself, as opposed to the possible lujvo glibau (which refers to an English type-of language, often--but not necessarily--English).

Proper noun

gliban.

1. English (the language)

   mi tavla le pendo zo'e la gliban.

   I speak to a friend about some unspecified subject in English.
