Kukona ni yi tjirithe.

I can run with it.

Kuti nabutuka nao.

Kukona ni yi reyithe.

I can jump with it.

Kuti natoloka nao.

Kukona ni yi kinithe.

I can dance with it.

Kuti nashana nao.

Kukona ni yi yowanithe.

I can swim with it.

Kuti naowa nao.

Kukona ni yi reyareyithe.

I can skip with it.

Kuti naciluka nao.

Kukona ni yi thitithe.

I can kick with it.

Kuti napanta nao.

Kukona ni yi shendukithe.

I can escape with it.

Kuti nafyuka nao.

Ene mbadi wa kukona kuyitukitha.

But I can never fly with it.

Nomba teti impupuke nao.
