Kaltxí frapo. i was looking in the vocab/ phrases child subforum in the simple phrases post and something threw me off.

when looking at the litteral translations under the Na'vi phrase i saw things like (TOP) (ACC) (PLU) can someone help me with thesee?

Irayo
Hawnuyu, oe-yä itan, oe-l nga-ti kameie.

Plumps

TOP = topical marker -(ì)ri
ACC = accusative marker -(i)t
PLU ... I'm not quite sure wheter this is the plural marker/prefix ay- or something else

Others will correct me if I'm wrong :)

That covers what all the things you'll see are...  At least for people that follow that.

As for what all those things are, wikipedia is your best bet, or the crash course in linguistic terminology thread.
