A Collection of Texts in Qit

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)

व्युद ङ्त़िःऱ वीणुटु षक़ुटु ण्यूऱ स्यूग्व्युट्यु दः णु टा दः द़ु ग्विषुटु च मू डद़ीङ्वुटु च ॥ च्युक़्ऽव्यूद क़वि ग्विऩुटु बिस़ुटु णु ग्व । मू म्युद क़वि क़वऱ त़िफ़ुशुटु ग्विऩुटु ग्विशुटु टा दः । ङ्त़स़्यू द़िस़ुद क़वि क्त़्युः ॥ द्युद क़वि स़ु क्तःद़क़अऽअऱ क्व्युः दः मू क्तःद़क़उटु स़ु णःऱ ङ्त़ःचा क्व्युः दः ॥ व्युद क़वि क्तःद़क़उटु ङ्व्युःशिग्वि भिट्यु । मू व्युद क़वि ङुभाक़वुटु शदुऽइग्वि भिट्यु ॥

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

शुस़ऱुः क्व्युः ऱ्युऱ वीणुटु दः ॥ युक़इद च्युम्युट्यु मू टसुटु ग्विषुटु णु फ़िः क़वि ॥ क़्वफ़ाद क़वि सिभुटु णु फ़िः क़्ऽउशिणुटु मू शूग्वुटु ॥ ऩ्युः ङ्विःङ्यूद ग्विषुटु णु डि क़्ऽवाऱ क़्ऽवितुटु ञु दः ग्विऩुटु फ़ीऱ क़्व्युङ्व्युट्यु दः टा ॥ द़िद़द टू ण्यूऱ दः मू क़वऩऱ दः ग्विऩुटु क्त्यूऱ गिऽअङ्वुटु दः टा ॥ ञक़वदुः ग्विषुटु णु डि । सःणद टू ॥

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.
