Permissions fixed, I think. SMF membergroup/permission control is a paain.

Ikran Ahiyìk

Can I submit names? (no meaning at all; shape, stress, sex included, no illegal words or non-"name-like" thing..)

But that's really a huge list..

Anyone can answer my question..
Ma Ikran Ahiyìk,

You can do that, of course. But the overall aim of the LEP is creating new vocabulary ... names, important as they are(!), can't be used (for example) to say 'somebody offered something'.
Most people have the feeling that our abilities to express certain concepts is, for the moment at least, more important.

But there are ways around that ;) – as far as I can see...
   1) When you suggest a word and provide sample sentences, you can slip in a name here or there. Once, the word/sentence is approved and appears on Frommer's blog, so (hopefully) will be the name :P
   2) Look at the name Peyral. You could divide that into pey 'wait' and ral 'meaning'. I have no idea what that means to the Na'vi culturally but it is very rare that a name (on Earth) can't be traced back to an old(er) language and be laden with meaning. In the template there is the point 'Derivations'. If you think of a name with a specific meaning, why not come up with its elements and provide your suggestions for that? It would provide you with the approval of your name and the community with new words ;)

This is awesome!   Having an expanded vocabulary will be a wonderful thing.  :)

Thanks to all the hard work done by the committee!   Everything seems very well thought out and planned.  I know this is not an easy thing to do, and I'm sure everybody here appreciates it.  I know I do. 

THANK YOU ALL!     ;D

I feel like I was totally put on the spot!  When I'm translating I'm always wishing there was a word for something then when I have the opportunity to make one I can't remember any of them!  hrh...ironic :D

I have to ask this because it seems no one mentioned this kind of thing, and the amount of them is ...

So this may be a try only, I still have several "normal" words to suggest..

Anyway, thanks :)
