So, (my uncle) asks: "Will you walk?" "Yes, I will walk."
Comment:
This is taken from a narrative told by Jerome Francis Rosario. Note: The verb complex tɛ puntan [PRS ask.PROG] instead of puntan in his speech is an older form and is seldom found in Korlai today. Similarly, parmi is an older form seldom found today. Instead pari is found today.
