Kaltxì ma tsmuk ulte zola'eiu nìprrte'!

At first I advise you come to this stuff and read this language studying tips. If you want pick language easier, it's only one way - try to speak. And don't be afraid of errors and ask all that you don't understand. Everyone here will be glad to help you.
And listen this Karyu Pawl speech, it helps you pronounce difficult Na'vi sounds.

Eywa ngahu.

Kaltxì ma Äteya. And welcome here. I hope, that you will keep up learning and that you'll be friend of us, of Eywa nad of na'vi language... If you want to help, feel free to ask anybody.

And one day, you might be good enough to correct some other beginners.

Eywa ngahu, ma tsmuk.

Irayo for all the support.

If nobody bites I guess it's safe to ask what does the ma that you guys are putting in front of my name mean?

Ftxavanga Txe′lan · July 25, 2011, 08:04:35 PM

Ma is a marker used to address a person. For example, if you wish to address your friend named Bobby, you can say ma Bobby.

It can also be used with words such as 'eylan friend or tsmukan/tsmuke brother/sister, and even with plural.

For instance, to address several friends, ma (oeyä) eylan.

Kaltxì and welcome!

ALways love to see more people joining

About ma: well I can confirm that unlike in French, ma does NOT mean my

It's just a word you have to put when you are speaking directly to someone (not about him/her with someone else)
