Solresol Day

[M O]

So what do you guys think of having an International Solresol Day? I
was thinking of using August 15 (Sudre's birthday) or maybe May 25th
(525 = Solresol). This year, if it's this Monday, we could just do
small things like wishing people a Happy Solresol Day :D or writing
statuses in Solresol on the various social networks we use.

I am in support of Sudre's birthday as Solresol Day. Is the
publication date of Sudre's first book known? That could be another
possibility.

His first book? The pdf is the dictionary published in 1866 after his death. He published his own book Rapports sur la langue musicale inventée par M. F. Sudre in 1838. And then there are apparently some letters he wrote, which you can find listed here:

I'm not finding any specific dates, though, just the years listed :/

Anyway, I like August, so that'd be my preference :D

I like Sudre's birthday, though I think we might as well celebrate on 5/25 as well :)

Hey, I'm fine with more holidays :D

Solsire Doremi lasi Solresol!

[Garrison]

Solsire Doremi lasi Solresol fa mifalala! (Mi Misisol Doremi lasi Solresol... Solre faremi la ladosi "Solsire" domisóldo? Dore midofa "misisol".)

[Paulo N]

mifalala? fado? :D

re la ladosi "Solsire" do faremi "midodosol fala;" domi falare lamilasi "Misisol Doremi lasi Solresol" midososol. ;) Mi "midolasi" midosolsol, dore solsimisol.

[Garrison Osteen]

"mifalala" was the only word that came up for the search "everyone" in the translated dictionary... Is there a better word?

(And I guess you're probably right about everything else. I don't like "midolasi" that much though - it doesn't seem like the right conotation, but I'm not sure.)

[Collin N.]

I like the idea of using Surdre's Birthday mostly bacause that's sooner.

I think it'd be better to use 5/25 for its symbolic date, Sudres Bday isn't good to remember. My opinion.
