Naua
- naua moya is an adaptation of Ajan for writing Kala.
- naua moya is written vertically, in columns running from left to right, but can be written horizontally.
Consonants
Diacritics
Basic strokes
stroke direction
Moyato
- moyato, meaning "How to write." An example of the formation of words based on the above graphemes.
- Top row, left to right.
- The graphemes for pa and ka.
- Combining these renders pak.
- Adding a koli, or "tail" renders paka.
- Diacritic marks for /e/ and /o/ render peko /ˈpeː.ko/.
- Bottom row, left to right.
- Marks the labialization of /p/; /ˈpʷaː.ki/
- Shows the palatalization of /k/ and demonstrates two diacritics on one glyph; /ˈpaː.kʲo/, pakyo.
- The nasalization mark is shown on the ka syllable to render /ˈpunː.ka/ or /ˈpuŋː.ka/, punka.
- The nasalization mark is shown on the initial glyph and demonstrates two diacritics on one glyph; /ˈᵐpoː.ka/, mpoka
kasi
- The conventional link between glyphs does not always occur. There are eight constructions which use the koli to link glyphs that do not fit together in the standard way.
- When linking sa with ta and ka a koli yomo ua'e ka'e yoso tahe [right up to left down] is used. The same construction is used when linking ha with ta and ka.
- When linking la with na and nya a koli yoso ua'e ka'e yomo tahe [left up to right down] is used.
- When writing a word that begins with a vowel glyph that is followed by a na or nya, a koli yoso ua'e ka'e yomo tahe is used instead of the zero consonant symbol. This is the only occasion that a koli will be marked with a vowel diacritic.
Numerals
From top to bottom; uena'o, ueka'o, nyeyauena'o, hanyeta'o, manyetsauesa'o and tatletaueya'o.
- In large numbers, elements are combined from largest to smallest, and zeros are implied [see example "302" to the right].
-
Universal Declaration of Human Rights
The UDHR in naua moya.
- kua tlana tsiya ma’a katsi ma kueli itlo nasa
- all human free with dignity and rights equal born
- All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights.
- kam tlitsi ma toya yoha ma kanku ma’a tsaku te takun ketahe
- 3PL reasoning and conscience possess and 3PL.RECP with idea of brotherhood behave.NEC
- They are endowed with reason and conscience and should act towards one another in a spirit of brotherhood.
