*(I'm not sure if the k-g combination would give people trouble, though. As a beginner I'm not sure of the rules of dropping vowels in instances like this.)

Alciona:Ekpublikagejeco? Or Ekpublikgejeco*? Begin public gayness?I think the rule for dropping vowels when combining words is to do whatever makes the word easier to pronounce - in this case, I think keeping the vowel would be preferred.

However, I don't have a source for this, so I'd double-check with someone who is more knowledgable/experienced.
