[Beduino]

can someone see if I made this sentence right? Irayo

tsun nga-l tslam fì'u-ti srak?
Can you-ERG understand this-ACC ?
can you understand this?

[tute nuereime]

yea that looks right you could write it like this but it means the same thing
nga-l tsun tslam fì'u-ti srak?

[Beduino]

yea that looks right you could write it like this but it means the same thing
nga-l tsun tslam fì'u-ti srak?

yeah. but my thing is with the suffixes! If i used'em right, OMG, I'll be so happy hahaha

[tute nuereime]

when ever you use -l and -ti you need to use them both.
-l is the subject
-ti is noun the subject is doing something to
so for practice rewrite the sentences with the correct -l and -ti placement

poan tayìran Kelutrel
he  will walk to hometree

poé makto ikran
she rides ikran

ngeyä pa'li 'oleko oeyä pa'li
your horse attacked my horse

[Beduino]

poan-l tayìran Kelutrel-ti
he  will walk to hometree

poé-l makto ikran-ti
she rides ikran

ngeyä pa'li-l 'oleko oeyä pa'li-ti
your horse attacked my horse

would it be like this? omg I never learned that even in portuguese hahahaha
well, guess Na'vi will help me with my own language hahaha 

[tute nuereime]

you got them right but the last one was the tricky one if i understand it correctly i think you have to put the -l on ngeyä because you are the topic not the horse though it might end up having to be spelled out
ngeyäri pa'lil 'oleko oeyä pa'liti
so it shows that you are the topic but your horse is the subject doing the action.

[Beduino]

Yeah the last one was tricky, but i understood this way:

ngeyä (your) is genitive, a possessive case, so i think the subject would be my horse, wich actually DO something to the noun (your horse), no?

poan tayìran Kelutrel
he  will walk to hometree

That one's a trick question!   Kelutrel isn't a patient of "walk".

Poan tayìran Kelutrelne

[tute nuereime]

where did you get the -ne ending

[Beduino]

poan tayìran Kelutrel

That one's a trick question!   Kelutrel isn't a patient of "walk".

Poan tayìran Kelutrelne

I just thought
poan is the subject, well, will walk can't be the noun! hahahaha so i had Kelutrel left hahaha

and yeah, what is that -ne? 

[wisnij]

where did you get the -ne ending

Ne is an adposition meaning "to", in the directional sense.  It can go before the word as a preposition as well, but I don't think we know whether it's one of the ones that triggers lenition, so it might be either ne Kelutrel or ne Helutrel depending.

[Beduino]

uhnn ok

well guys, 5:20 am 

time to go to bed! see ya soon!

[tute nuereime]
