"n'djamen", aside from the omission of the final vowel rather than the addition is, I believe, the correct interpretation of the IPA for N'DJamena, as shown in the English article. [[User:Stifynsemons|Stifynsemons]] 22:50, 22 September 2007 (UTC)
:The IPA ends in [ə], which corresponds most closely to lojban 'y'. Also, 'ndj' is not a valid lojban consonant cluster, and syllabification does not, I think, change that. So perhaps ''n,jamenys''. [[User:Adamgarrigus|komfo,amonan]] 23:50, 22 September 2007 (UTC)
::The name is from Arabic ''Niǧāmīnā'', so you could put an ''i'' after the ''n''. It ends in alif, not ta marbuta, so the Lojban word should not have a ''t'' added. [[User:Pier|Pier]] 13:08, 23 September 2007 (UTC)
