Se me re ser (排灣語)

1.
Malji Malji a tja Cemas ru i ya qu a na
ne ma qe sa tje ka mapaseqeljing ru i yu
in i no in qaiqi qa u ru i yu in i no in.

2.
Pasiqaca i a semenai ru i ya qu a na ne ma
qe a maleva ta tja Cemas ru i yu in i no in
qaiqi qa u ru i yu in i no in.


* malji malji 感謝 thanks
* semenai 唱歌 sing songs
* senai 歌 song
* maleva 快樂 joy, happiness

(Notice the infix "me" that turns the noun "song" into the verb "to sing songs" -- senai --> semenai

Correction:
senai > s-em-enai
buru > b-en-uru
cedas > c-em-edas
)

中綴是em才對

senai > s-em-enai
buru > b-en-uru
cedas > c-em-edas

Thanks, please feel free to post new Paiwan writings. It would be great to increase the amount of written works on the blog. Please also recommend other websites that contain these written languages.
