So last weekend, someone from a local startup visited my regular Na'vi gathering.  And, to make a long story short, one thing led to another and we ended up borrowing a local television studio for a quiet place to record some phrases.

And here is the result!  http://www.mightyverse.com/search/source_language/art-nav/target_language/en

Nice work on the audio.  I think I need to start practicing my pronunciations more...

That's great!
I see a conversational lesson in progress ;)

The only decision I'm not so sure about is the pseudo-phonetic option... I realise that it's for beginners but I fear that a lot of people will just read this transcription instead of going by the few pronunciation rules that we have in Na'vi ... but that's just a thought.

I completely agree, but I couldn't talk him out of including them.

Well, such can't be helped. If you ask me it's probably for the best since it might make the language more accessible for the less dedicated learners and I think that's worth it if they pick up a few minor bad habits.
