Cool. I like the idea of fronting the verb in the complement.
For mine:
Palu f'Dule:
- newa hu tolopi fxinu ho xilapsa nitapli
- ["neWa Xu "t_dolopi f@"Sinu Xo "Silap_}sa "nitap_}li]
- annoy (mod) string-this of-ideas (oj) killed-(past)-someone
believe-(past)-I
Bes Dis'z:
- ripìs'sh rakót rus both'ts fat'ch
- [rIpI_Ls@sh rako_Ht rus boT@t_s fat@ch]
- (intr)-I-believe-(completed) (intr)-it-kill flow opinions-(composing)
here-at
_ripìs'sh_ is a modifier for the entire phrase following it.
or
- rakót rus both'ts fat'ch hàn'ks ripìs'sh
- [rako_Ht rus boT@ts fat@ch ha_Ln@ks ]
- (intr)-it-kill flow opinions-(composing) here-at this-because
(intr)-I-believe-(completed)
_hànks_ refers to the prior phrase, and is a modifier for the entire phrase
following it.
Trayiss Laafaah:
