 --- Joe Fatula skrzypszy:

> The Ewe and the Mares
>
>    On a hill, a ewe who had no wool saw horses, one of them pulling a heavy
> wagon, one carrying a big load, and one carrying a man quickly.
>    The ewe said to the mares, "My heart has pain to see a man ruling over
> the mares."
>    The mares said, "Listen, ewe, our hearts have pain when we see man, the
> master, taking your wool for a warm coat for himself.  And the ewe has no
> wool."
>    Hearing this, the ewe fled into the plains.

> How would you describe the sound of this language?
I agree with the others. My first thought was also: Turkish!


Anyway, here's the same text in Wenedyk. I won't ask what natlang it makes you
think of :)) .

Piekwa i kawal\y

Serz kol piekwa, kwala nie haba l\any, widzieba kawal\y, un dzie kwalu traje
graw wiekiel\, sieka~d bajl\a gra~dzia~ sarczyna~, maz^ trzec' rapydzie prota
maszkiel\.
Piekwa dziczeba kawaliwy: "Mi doli kro'dz' kwa~du widziu komo'd hon' rzez^e
serz kawal\y."
Kawal\y dziczeba~: "Uszkiel\ta, piekwa, nowy doli kro'dz' kwa~du widzim komo'd
hon', maz^yszcz, prze~dzie twa~ l\ana~ proko'd faczer kal\d me~cio'l\ pro siej
sol\u. Maz^ piekwa nie ha l\any."
Komo'd piekwa il\u udziewy, l\a wz^eba je~ pl\anie.
