Tìpeng Eywati

Krr a ngal peng Eywati, nga si nìltsan.
Krr a Eywal peng ngat, nga lu lekye'ung.
Speaking with Eywa

When you talk to Eywa, you do well.
When Eywa speaks to you, you are crazy.

(Na'vi adaptation of a sawtute saying by Thomas Szasz.)

    säplltxevi:
    Be careful with the form ‘when’ here. I think you mean krr a. The question words pehrr/krrpe are for questions of ‘when will we meet? when were you there?’ etc.

    As it stands now, it reads ‘when do you tell Eywa?’

    Ngeyä famrel a lu stum fratrr oeru teya si nìngay ;)
