Trial

Notes

  • Muso b'i fɛ wa?: "Do you have a wife?". Literally, "Wife is located at your place?". This is a construction for expressing possession or the idea of "to have" using the postposition (Lit. "at the place of" or "by" [as in, "by the river"]). See ""To Have" (Possession)" for more details.

  • U balolen bɛ: "They are alive". Literally, "They nourished are"). This sentence uses the past or "resultative" participle -len, which is similar to "-ed" in English. For instance, "nourished". You can use it to turn verbs into something like an adjective: ka sigi 'to sit' → sigilen 'seated'. For example, N sigilen don "I am seated" (Lit. "Me seated it is"). Note that sigilen is often used to state where someone lives: N sigilen Faransi 'I live (am seated) in France'
