A Collection of Texts in Hat

What follows is a collection of texts intended to illustrate the language in more natural and extended use than the glossed examples found in the grammar.

The Tower of Babel (Genesis 11:1–9)

Fuluw puujus leezh nod tep puch sub ñiig pis sub ñasam. Fungibor dakip lozh maung, pis furaag dakip ñiñ higoo tyaiw tyoor, chachop fuchusut dakip huud. Fuñaung dakip dagañ pir shiij zhizaiñ tashes pis dagañ pir tak zhizaiñ tashes kusum. Fuluw dakip zhizaiñ balel chaug, pis fuluw dakip shimaaty balel sizaat.

And the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech. And it came to pass, as they journeyed from the east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar; and they dwelt there. And they said one to another, Go to, let us make brick, and burn them thoroughly. And they had brick for stone, and slime had they for morter.

A Creation Myth

Kityuzhal dagañ nadus leezh. Fudibing siizh pis gizh dakip ñiig. Fuzazeed dakip gisag pis chail dop. Pab fuzhapid haat, lish hal dagañ ñiig, tyaiw hab paz. Fuzhuzaj jesh tep pis ratyuw tyaiw tir kuwil. Fuwisashal dagañ ñiig, fuhizaup jesh.

We are not like other people. Their languages were shaped by struggle and time. They copied the sounds of beasts and birds, and they learned to speak like that. But our language arose in a different way. It was born whole and perfect in a single breath. Our language did not evolve; it was created.
