…Kwelát tha’ méle means ‘…take your child’. This is not a command, but rather part of a larger sentence which we will build up to in the next few posts.
Audio: Elizabeth Herrling
This phrase has the following structure:
- kwelát – to take, grasp, take hold of
- tha’ – your (this is the form more usually used before females, before a male or neuter Elders often say ta’.)
- méle – child (used for talking about people’s kin, not just any young person)
