Anyone here learning Lojban? I'm beginning today and I'm wondering how much I'll be able to use the language for day-to-day communication. Would anyone be in favor of a Lojban board being made?

I love the idea of learning lojban but I don't think I have enough motivation to do it.

That's a bad ass flag though.

 No.371

I might even learn it if some people /lang/ decides to.

>Lojban is a constructed, syntactically unambiguous human language based on predicate logic
My god, that sounds awesome.

 No.377

for universal languages you're probably better off learning Esperanto, just because it has more speakers

 No.386

Youtube doesn't offer any vids to learn the language. Where are some other sources on the web to learn it?

Is there some good online sources on the web to learn this language?

Lojban sounds really neat in theory, but all the tutorials read like algebra textbooks. I understand that in a conlang you might not care about reserving hotel rooms or ordering food, but there seems to be no emphasis at all on conversation, or on things you might need to say or talk about. Questions are introduced very late. You get the sense that if you forget a word the whole sentence will fall apart. It's not fault tolerant.

You can see how video tutorials would be very helpful. But in my searching, I found there was only one youtube video where they actually put effort into production, and the visual and auditory input helps, but it's still more math than language. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yZjSTUK3hFI

And then there's this asshole who talks about how Lojban is better than all other languages and everyone speaks it in the future. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=94RfZey9iV4

If that guy doesn't discourage you, take those balls of steel you have and go to >>>/jbo/ – there are people there. It may even be less dead than /lang/.

Lojbanfags like to say that it isn't meant to be an IAL. That seems to hold given how little effort there is to make the language known.

 No.467

I have liked some of their ideas, but overall it is a poor Universal Axillary Language. It simply stands as a science experiment.

Because it is literally by and for logic.
