De Lün, pajardegves mis Hedra 

Monday, 14th October 

Ma gwredhen dhe bub verb. Hedna ell bos ûsys avel gòrebma rag üdn person (po kei). My a lavar "Sedh!" ha my a wel an kei sevel emann! Ma othom dhe nei a wil traynyans moy. Nag ew da ganjo sedha. My ell leverel "Cav!" ha "Kergh!" po "Ke dhe gerhes!" gen sowena moy. My a lavar "Cân!" e'n mettin ha my a glow edhen ow cana. Hei a gan war neb coor, heb ger veth dhortam. My alja leverel "Taw tavas!" heb sowena.

Every verb has a root. That can be used as a command for one person (or dog). I say "Sit!" and I see the dog get up! We need to do more training. He doesn't like sitting. I can say "Find!" and "Fetch!" or "Go, fetch!" with more success. I say "Sing!" in the morning and I hear a bird sing. It sings anyway, without a single word from me. I could say "Hush!" without success.
