Gak! - a labiodental sneaked into the very last word! Also, "toush" should of course be accusative _toushes_. But what to do with that unfortunate /v/? Simply dropping _telvér_ would still leave us with a grammatical sentence, but it does seem like a chicken solution. So, I'll change the last bit a bit instead. Lo! the improved Mk2 Toothy Sentence for David Peterson: E' stelza dins sashtstinzh tshist suzdel shas, tse sha senar tsai toushes - ta sul shar a thainethes, lir ta srát shu shan seidh ast its, tse sha zol lis. ("The little red-haired girl will love you forever, if you give her a kiss - I tell you this truth because I know you both will be happy if you do that.")
