Neimalu text Euazar vaššimi Atrözat, euazar ékobrigi. Euazu anar agüriði straxlöns soši diklameid. Kraftiðr zöjkaus euazež pöjörð ilpioþni ladus.

Taming a horse Once, I tried to tame a horse. The horse struggled a lot with this and it made sounds. It gave the strength of a hundred horses and it died.

Vocabulary agüriði – very anu – this -at – adverb atrözat – once brigos – attempt diklamos – scream, yell -eid – 3rd person past ékos – drive, ride euazu – horse -i – first person past ilpioþ – death kraftiðu – power, strength ladu – 3rd person (he, she, it) -öns – past tense -örð – irrealis past tense -os – present tense pauos – consume (pöj- before ö) šimos – tame soši – and straxlos – struggle vaš- – causative zöjks – hundred

Cases -a – accusative (replacing -es or -s) -ar, -ur, -r – accusative (replacing -u) -ež, -aež – partitive -ni, -uni, -ani – terminative -us, -aus – possessive

Grammar Word order: usually SOV, but the order may change for emphasis since Neimalu uses case endings to show the function of the words anyway. Singular and plural words are not indicated differently (there are group markers, but they aren't used in this text). Also, there is no definite or indefinite article.

Present, past and future tense in verbs are marked with -os, -öns and -aþ if the subject is known. Instead, a personal marker may be used (in this text -eid instead of ladu + -öns).
