 cnima'o: attitudinal (cinmo cmavo)
zgama'o: observational (zgana cmavo)
xusycmuma'o: evidential (xusra jicmu cmavo)
fagyfesyvau: ashtray (fagri festi cmavo)

cnima'o - yes, been using it for a while

zgama'o - What is an observational? I thought you meant
                evidential, but you gloss that separately.

xusycmuma'o - yes. Been wondering about that for a while.

fagyfesyvau - let's not be coy. It's a sigfesyvau (or
                sigfespalta

 zgisrita'e: cassette (zgike dasri tanxe)
zgiku'ocukla: LP (zgike skuro cukla)
>++++++++

zgi?? come off it nick.
snaveisrita'e (sance vreji dasri tanxe)
snaveiku'ocukla
(Yes, your words are OK, but they are more specific -
or at least zgisrita'e is - than the English, and should
not be glossed that way. Gloss it as music cassette,
if you will).

 cmaladyca'a: microphone (cmalu cladu cabra; I've been contemplating something
involving 'receiver', but amn't sure how to convey that in Lojban.)
>++++++++++

'cmalu' is not relevant. How about
selylauca'a (se cladu cabra) or
snaterga'eca'a (sance te ganse cabra) or even
tinca'a (tirna cabra)
