More Nyenya'a

Here is a text, so you can get a better feel of it. The text is the first
Sura of the Koran, which I chose because Islam is the second largest
religion in the Nyenya'a Empire, after only traditional shamanism. First
is pure Nyenya'a in X-Sampa, then interlinear, then English only.

sura NopobirE

kitoba-no Erupakakoto

alaxu-no atEra-na, alaxu-wa sawa, alaxu-wa EriSElE?

1. alaxu-ni, ese silara-no sEnE oma, nErutu-?o tuSijoka.

2. alaxu-wa sawa, alaxu-wa EriSElE?

3. Sikikoto-no-ubu-no naNimatsa,

4. manata-Na pida-?o sikinudEma, manata-Na ikajokoto-da pida-?o SitudEma

5. pida-wa manata-ni apuku-?o tikora takutsikawa

6. EsE-no apuku-wa EsE-?o pida-Na taladEma

7. ixi EsE-no apuku-wa EsE-Na pida-no nENa-?o tjElidEma, ixi EsE-no
apuku-wa EsE-Na abeNadEma.

First Sura

The Opening of the Book

In the name of Alla, the Beneficent, the Merciful.

1. Give praise to Allah, Lord of the world,

2. The Beneficent, the Merciful.

3. Owner of the Day of Judgment,

4. We worship Thee, we ask Thee for help.

5. Show us the straight path,

6. The path of those whom Thou favourest,

7. Not the path of those who receive Thy anger, nor the path of those who
go astray.
