Cool! There hasn't been a translation exercise in quite a while. Here it is in Rhean: "Umas' nastrud yezem c'e, i waereka bazim, nap ens'aldaka bazim jidumrek beklidve. Eya umas'a kein ki kudu yen murz'dir mukure s'izne. Du pranimi nap derpom jidumre zar s'iznimu." -- u "Babilon 5" G'Quon silc'er G'kar Mez'dolinyatc'ik: future around us:INST be:3SG , in change-GEN moments-INST , by revealing-GEN moments-INST be:born-INF(-ACC) wait-GER .
