1. To think
I think about many things:
Lamekekse marinain da
(lamekekse from lau-eke-kse 'to listen inside to oneself') (mar-ina 'a
manyness')

2. I plan to go to town today:
Mallaro jaru mene maida
(mar-la = large place + adessive case : jaru = I aru 'this day' : mene = to
go : maida = auxiliary 'to intend')

3. I will go by the low road:
Isi maleste mene da
(low : road + instrumental case : to go : 1ps aux)

4. I took my warmest cloak:
Harkude urutuisto batu da:
(cloak-my : heat-making-est : to bear : 1ps aux)

5. I stumbled on the road
Laksaro malea da:
(fall forward : road + locative case : 1 ps aux)

6. The wind was fierce:
Rosto na:
(violent wind : 3ps aux)

7. It snapped my cloak:

9. I think they have become ice:

10. I arrive at the inn half-dead:
