In Géarthnuns:
Öçek la chü zhbelísfaiksüt chak nunsang hühebrügrakh...öçek la sau
mölkarharsaut hütíornath!
you-nom/sing present-aux the extinction-acc the-pl language-gen/pl
fight-imperative... you-nom/sing pres-aux a language-acc create-imp
More pithy for a T-shirt, if more colloquial:
Chü zhbelísfaiksüt chak nunsang hühebrügrakh... sau mölkarharsaut
hütíornath!
And with the native script munching up the digraphs (and h's are
superscripts), you'd probably save an additional 15-odd typing spaces.
