Congratulations ma Taronyu,

Name your top three favorite Earth animals from most favorite to least. Why those? What's the animal you're most terrified of?

1. Homo sapiens sapiens. These guys are the best. Intelligent, social, ingenious, and fascinating. I hope they manage their stuff out soon, though.
...

What three items would you take to a desert island and why?

If escape is not possible, and I'm going to be alone for the rest of my life, I'd bring a gun, a bullet, and a bottle of jack.

let's hope, that beeing ingenious helps to find some other ways out 

For the T/F, since it has to be at least one T or one F, i go for:

T/T/F

That cat is sooo cute. Eh... Well.. all cats are

[Plumps]

Congrats for being the next ... well, second in line NoW

Interesting stuff - always great to read and learn what other people are up to. *hrh* you speak of yourself in third-person mode

Don't be so modest - we all know that we would be no further than kaltxì and oel ngati kame without your amazing work of collecting and keeping up with new words.

*thumbs up*

[Ftiafpi]

Congrats ma Taronyu! Nga lu nawma tute nìtxan!

I'm guessing Ngay/Ngay/Tsleng.

[Tsamsiyu Atsteu]

Congrats to you ma tsmukan!

It only says that one must be true. Nothing about one having to be false

[Kyle Kepone]

I remember someone saying the True/False answers can't all be true, and they can't all be false.

That being said, F/T/T.

[kewnya txamew'itan]

200 miles on one river is doable, but, unless you're counting the same stretch of river multiple times (which would be boring), less so; you're a student so you're going to be >22 countries again is doable, but I'm guessing unlikely so I'm going to have to say tsleng/tsleng/ngay.

Congrats btw.

[Lolet]

WUO! You got in the newspaper!

I never trust newspapers. Liars, all of them! 

[tsrräfkxätu]

Oh, I know you. You're that guy from the Sun. I wanna marry you! Call me...

(F/T/F)

[Payoang]

And we're all very proud of you!

[Lolet]

Those Sun reporters are not very openminded.

[Kyle Kepone]

All those blog writers are bastards lol. But hey, you got press.

['Oma Tirea]

No, I don't speak Na'vi at all.

Tsleng!  Ayoe omum a ngal pirvlltxe nìNa'vi.  Ayoe Tsole'a ngeyä upxare mì san Na'vi nì'aw sìk hìng.  Lam tsay'u sìltsan lu

Lahe sìpawmìri, Oe fpatsìl Ngay/Tsleng/Ngay.

Also, congratulations, ma Taronyu on becoming a NotW, as well as a Karyuä Srungsiyu on Ponguplltxe.

[`Eylan Ayfalulukanä]

Congratulations on being picked NoTW. You truly do deserve it. I have spent more hours with your dictionary (especially lately with all the changes) than any other Na`vi document! (I maintain a vocabulary learning screensaver app that has to be hand-edited from your dictionary.)

I like your cat, Charile as well.

I am going to say Ngay/Ngay/tsleng, although all three are entirely plausible.

[Taronyu]

And we're all very proud of you!

Payoang...wow. Just, wow. Thanks for pointing that out.

Irayo, everyone. More na'vi updates coming.

[Seze]

I just confirmed the search auto complete thing on my laptop using the built-in search bar in Safari, exact same as what Payoang posted.  That is rather impressive but at the same time that really sucks...

[Skxawng]

nice kitty :3

edit: also, if you do happen to visit D.C, let me know and perhaps we could get hammered together
