''It was freezing cold that night, but he kept on walking along the street. His destination seemed so far away but he didn't lose his hope in reaching his target. The sky was very clear, and he could see a lot of stars over himself. The lights of the city were far away from there, so they were not a disturbance to the sight. The moon hadn't risen yet, and the stars shone very brightly. Venus was low on the horizon but gave a beautiful strong light. He wasn't habited to see the Milky Way so clearly and stopped a moment to admire that wonderful strip of light.''

''Once upon a time there was a scorpion, he was on the bank of a river and wanted to cross it. He saw a frog and asked her: "Please, help me, I must cross the river". The frog replied: "No, If I help you, you will sting me". The scorpion thus said: "If I sting you, we both will die. I will not sting you". The frog agreed with the scorpion and he jumped on her back. While they were in the middle of the river, the scorpion stung the frog. The suffering frog asked the scorpion, while they were drowning: "Why did you sting me?". The scorpion replied: "I knew we would die, but I couldn't do otherwise. I'm a scorpion, that's my nature".''

States of the world - Dīn elān la

Main article: States of the World (Qihep)

The names of the states of the world are usually loanwords, so they are expressed by phonetic compounds, with normal syllables used for their phonetic value instead of their meaning. They are thus usually written with an underline. Names like state, kingdom, federation or democratic are not used directly but they are translated and not underlined.

The names of the states can be used as the relative adjective, and can be compounded to express the name of the inhabitants and of the related language.

Itālia: Itālia vranvran, Italian population, Itāliavran, an Italian, Itāliaxēp, the Italian language

Some states have however developed an alternative adjectival form. This form will be used for the compound words, if they refer to the culture, while the name of the country will still be used when referring to the state.

Doiclān: Doiclān vranvran, Doiclānvran, an inhabitant of Germany, but doicvran, a person speaking German, doicxēp, the German language
