A little bit of a children's story I might make for my conculture, i'll post it when i"m finished. though I mainly made it to practice glossing, which I hope I got somewhat right.
*is there a way to gloss that?
**I could not for the life of me remember what this is called.
***REF1 is a type of pronoun that refers to something in a past clause, there are two types.
words in parenthesis are assumed but not spoken.

(here's a simpler pronunciation

"ahnuhs kahtvehneeyahn pusehs nooght,
ahnuhs nugh sahghteevuhn ehn mahnnn)
