Inateli kutemuka nawu.

I can run with it.

Kuti nabutuka nao.


Inateli kukiluka nawu.

I can jump with it.

Kuti natoloka nao.


Inateli kuhan’gana nawu.

I can dance with it.

Kuti nashana nao.


Inateli kuwela nawu.

I can swim with it.

Kuti naowa nao.


Inateli kutomboka nawu.

I can skip with it.

Kuti naciluka nao.


Inateli kwaasa nawu.

I can kick with it.

Kuti napanta nao.


Inateli kutemuzhoka nawu.

I can escape with it.

Kuti nafyuka nao.


Ilan’ga hinatweshi kutuku nawuku.

But I can never fly with it.

Nomba teti impupuke nao.
