Sentences:
1. She is my doctor.

 ean éinie posohya

 e-a-n     éinie poso-hya
 be-prs-3s she   healer-my


2. _That_ is _my_ medicine, and _this_ is
> yours.
 Mentár i hwornaméttahya, ne e myentatma elya.

 mentá-r i   pornamétta-hya    ne  e  myenta-tma elya
 that-be the medicinal.herb-my and be this-rel  yours

[first "be" <-r> is the copulative, (pro)NOUN = NOUN],
second "be" <e> is the emphatic, placed in contrastive
position before the subject, which is can be marked,
and in this case is, by the relative case. This is
translated "as for X"]

3. She looked in their ears.
 anostili éinie no i moniryántea

 a-nostil-i      éinie no i   monir-ya-n-tea
 AGM-look.in-pst she   to the ear-pl-acc-their

[nostiliello is a new word, although I think I made it
before and had it mean something else, so perhaps this
sentence and the next would have to change]

4. She looked in (or tested, or..) her (someone
else's) eye.

 anostili éinie no i ssilmánea

 ________ éinie  no i   tilma-n-ea
          she    to the eye-acc-his/her/its

 5. Our friends are ill.

 eanto mirninya-ni marni

 e-a-nto   mírni-nya-ni       marni
 be-prs-3p friend-our-people  sick

 [mirninya-ni is a compound. Because the noun mirni
does not distinguish plural and singular, a compound
can be formed with <ni> "people", to indicate the
plural, if needed]

 6 Do you guys have headaches?

 esi eanto inekavi i ssármeinatya?

 esi e-a-nto   inekavi  i   tárma-i-natya?
 Q.P. be-prs-3p in.pain the head-pl-your

 7. His diagnosis (that he gave) is that she will get
better.

  liuphaindárnya mare ssa layassán éinie.

 liuphaind-ar-nya  mare ssa  layass-a-n       éinie
 diagnosis-cop-his fact that convalesce-prs-3s she

 8. She will cure my friends.

 poskén éinie i mirnisya-ni

 posk-e-n    éinie i   mirni-n-hya-ni
 heal-fut-3s she   the friend-acc-my-people

 [the underlying form of the 1st person singular
possessive is <-sya>, hence the combination form with
the accusative seen above]

-Elliott

 new words:
 nostiliello no "to look into"
 liuphayallo "to diagnose"
 liuphaina "diagnosis"
 layatyello "to become well, convalesce"
 [layo-yatyello "better-become"]
