This is where we'll put proposed and approved sentences in Naeso, exemplifying the uses of words and suffixes and grammatical structures.

If a word or suffix hasn't yet been voted in on the dictionary pages, but you use it here anyway, please please please link to the relevant vote.

glossing

If you're not sure how to format a sentence gloss, see the Leipzig Glossing Rules.

The following abbreviations are Naeso-specific and don't appear in the Leipzig list.

  • MB — morpheme boundary
  • INC — inceptive aspect
  • NEW — someone who has just joined the conversation (as in pae)
  • OLD — someone who has been part of the conversation for a while (as in tha)

Proposed sentences

Lavao'am ku Jaeku va zaevu.

write-MB-PROG A Jim P sentence

jim_henry is writing a sentence. — 0/0 (0/0)
  • The above uses glottal stop as a liason consonant, written as an apostrophe between the root's vowel cluster and the affix's vowel; the basics of it would be unaffected if the liason consonant were something different.

Lavaosu ku Jaeku va zaevu.

write-PRS Jim P sentence

Jim's writing a sentence. — 0/0 (0/0)

Zelthizo ku lynh va do.

make-INC A we;INCL P language

Kal pan tha!

goodbye FOC 2SG;OLD

Goodbye! (said to someone who's been on the chat for a while) — 0/0 (0/0)
  • The above are proposed more-formal variants of basic "Eana!" and "Kal!"

Zelthija ku si va jan.

make-PRF A 1SG P word

I have (just) made a word/words. — 0/0 (0/0)

Sunhsa'am ku si va silzu.

edit-MB-PROG A 1SG P page

tseltsinh sinte syn kunoy'apfe pan tthaikiun.

contain full in vehicle-MB-hover FOC eel-PL

My hovercraft is full of eels. — 0/0 (0/0)
  • This is an example of redundancy in Naeso: tseltsinh syn could be replaced by tseltsinh bu or sou syn, but "Let usage define meaning" applies.

Speak A 2SG FOC-Q man or;EXCL REL enter-PRF P vehicle public, REL sit LOC that
