Letsranten...

Oe lu pamreltu.
Aylì'u lu yawne oeru.
Tìvirä ayvur lu letsranten oeru.

Oe lu karyu.
Tìomum lu yawne oeru.
Tìvirä tìomum lu letsranten oeru.

Oe lu tute.

Ke tìtatep kifkeyä lu letsranten oeru.

Oe lu koak.
Tìrey lu yawne oeru.
Txe'lan a'ewan... lu letsranten fraporu.

Cutting in with English, to make it easier (for me!).
I mean to say: spreading stories, spreading knowledge, etc.

'fwa' is mentioned as "that" in the dictionary, which makes me interpret your version as: that to spread stories is important to me. Somehow that does not "feel" the same as "spreading". I selected the "tì"-versions on purpose, as that (afaik) turns a verb in the verb-ing form.

I do see the improvement with "tsranten", for some reason I missed that verb.

Tì- is a noun-forming prefix, but it's not productive. The "-ing form" (aka gerund) is formed using tì- <us>, however Na'vi gerunds can't take arguments (i.e. objects), so *tìvusirä ayvurit is incorrect. Usually such cases are handled with "fwa/futa/furia [verb+object]", so the best way to translate fwa virä ayvurit, tsranten oer would be exactly "spreading stories matters to me."

Ahhh, I see. I shall copy all of this into my grammar-etc-document, which is more reliable on these things than my head. Irayo si ngaru.

Here is worth to say: translate meaning, not words (golden rule I break sometimes too, I'm afraid...)

Good poem, ma Puvomun. First strophe makes me think about Nanowrimo - I know you have big experience in this field
