Who was the first skyperson?

[tompakato]

Here's my try:
Pesu lu tawtute a'awve, Yuri Kakarin ftxey Rayt Mesmukan?
"ftxey" is "ji" and "fu" is ".a", right? Or is "fu" ".onai"?
Does it make sense to speak of either as (mes/t)awtute a'awve?

Who was the first skyperson?
Pesu / Tupe lolu tawtute a'awve?

Pesu lu tawtute a'awve, Yuri Kakarin ftxey Rayt Mesmukan?

Pesu / Tupe lolu tawtute a'awve, Yuri Kakarin fu Rayt Mesmukan?
Who was the first skyperson, Yuri Gagarin or Rayt Brothers?

"ftxey" is "ji" and "fu" is ".a", right? Or is "fu" ".onai"?

I'm not sure what you mean.
ftxey = choose, fu = or

Does it make sense to speak of either as (mes/t)awtute a'awve?

?
mesawtute means 'two skypeoples'

Hum...

I have my idea:

Ftxey Yuri Kakarin ftxey Rayt Mesmukan lolu (mes/t)awtute a'awve?

Whether Yuri Gagarin or Wright Brothers was/were first skyperson/people?

Ftxey Yuri Kakarin ftxey Rayt Mesmukan lolu (mes/t)awtute a'awve?

Whether Yuri Gagarin or Wright Brothers was/were first skyperson/people?

Ftxey Yuri Kakarin ftxey Rayt Mesmukan lolu (ay)sawtute a'awve?

Somehow the sentences make no sense.
Tawtute is skypeople but here is need 'where' were they fist?

Whether Yuri Gagarin or Wright Brothers was/were first skyperson/people in air / space?
Ftxey Yuri Kakarin ftxey Rayt Mesmukan lolu (ay)sawtute a'awve mì ya fu mokifkey?

First, tawtute means human. For the meaning of tompakato, I would use tute a tawmì.

Then, we shorten your sentence, which has too much words for one meaning.

Ftxey Yuri Kakarin ftxey Rayt mesmukan lolu 'awvea (mes/t)ute a tawmì?

[Tìtstewan]

Tawtute is skypeople but here is need 'where' were they fist?

?

Here I mean who was what? The first person in air or the first person in space?

Whether Yuri Gagarin or Wright Brothers was/were first skyperson/people in air / space?
Ftxey Yuri Kakarin ftxey Rayt Mesmukan lolu (ay)sawtute a'awve mì ya fu mokifkey?

Ftxey Yuri Kakarin ftxey Rayt mesmukan lolu 'awvea (mes/t)ute a tawmì?

Hmm..in these cause, I would make two seperate sentence:
Ftxey Yuri Kakarin ftxey Rayt mesmukan lolu 'awvea (pxes/t)ute a tawmì? ...in space.
Ftxey Yuri Kakarin ftxey Rayt mesmukan lolu 'awvea (pxes/t)ute a yamì? ...in air.

I can improve my sentence:

Ftxey Yuri Kakarin ftxey Rayt mesmukan lolu 'awvea tute a tswolayon klltxeio.

Whether Yuri Gagarin or Wright brother have been the first person who have flown over the ground.
(Note: I mean ''over the ground'', because Wright brother's Flyer didn't fly in high altitude.)

"ftxey" is "ji" and "fu" is ".a", right? Or is "fu" ".onai"?

I'm not sure what you mean.
ftxey = choose, fu = or

Lojban conjunctions. "ji" is "or" when asking which one. ".a" is inclusive or, and ".onai" is exclusive or.

"ftxey" is "ji" and "fu" is ".a", right? Or is "fu" ".onai"?

I'm not sure what you mean.
ftxey = choose, fu = or

Lojban conjunctions. "ji" is "or" when asking which one. ".a" is inclusive or, and ".onai" is exclusive or.

fu I would highly suspect to be xor. (.onai)

Also, what's up with fxey...ftxey.. questions? Do we have any examples of this? I don't think it makes any sense.

I like this version:
