Sarah Karoline Here's how it sounds in IPA:
Tə bɛ:nz əv bIn ra:vɪn da:n tə wo:lz tədeɪ
How it could be written:
*T‘ berns ‘ave bin rivin‘ daan t‘ wolls t‘deh.
----
I hope I don't find myself buried in an Ikea product under a pile of French fries somewhere in Lake Bled

Arief Wibowo Don't worry, Sarah Karoline, just focus on posting your challange. I will help you manage the tagging.
Sarah Karoline Arief Wibowo: I've only had the tagging problem since last night. I see you have some programming skills
Is there a reason I can't tag more than one person in a message?

Arief Wibowo Sarah Karoline, I am half machine 
I am also facing same problem. I guess I will just invite those who were in Språkspelet IV (2 threads ago) but wasn't in the last thread: Alfia Wallace, Elizabeth Bruinsma-van Oers, Zev Brȹk, Анатолий Сорэнсен

Sarah Karoline Given I work with computers everyday, like most people, I don't like to be beaten by them! haha
Arief Wibowo Hahaha, to beat machines back, try refreshing the page (start over). Sometimes somehow the "mentions" command wasn't triggered.
Sarah Karoline I was trying the refresh page and logging out and in last night. It worked most of the time, but not always. Perhaps I'd written too many posts, so got blocked...? Oops!
Arief Wibowo In Latvian (and with cognates in several Indo-European languages), bērns means child...
The child have been [...]?
The child have been [...]?
Sarah Karoline Maria: I've just got a notification that you have posted a comment, but I can't see it.
Arief: Thriving
Today And/Than/Then
Arief: Thriving
Today And/Than/Then Arief Wibowo This round isn't too easy for me, but definitely not as difficult as the previous IKEA Ställ-building round 
Arief Wibowo Maria's latest comment that I can see was: I have to work now, in one hour I'll be back!
Sarah Karoline That's the last comment I can see too, but then I got a notification about a post Maria sent two minutes ago.
Sarah Karoline There is a dialectal phrase and a standard English equivalent.
The dialectal word is "berns" and its meaning is "children".
You're right!
The dialectal word is "berns" and its meaning is "children".
You're right!
Sarah Karoline Wikipedia isn't right on this occasion, but you are right about 'children'.
Riving It's a word from one of our nice invaders
Riving
It's a word from one of our nice invaders 
Arief Wibowo Malin Elisabeth Nilsson, I guess the sentence is children-friendly, no death or scary scary imagery involved
Sarah Karoline Arief: Yes "riving"
Malin: Bear but children We took "berns" from your neighbours across the sound!
Is there another Viking word in this sentence?
Malin: Bear
but children We took "berns" from your neighbours across the sound! Is there another Viking word in this sentence?
Sarah Karoline Ja! Yes! Ett ord til som vi har stulit! Another word we stole! Stole from all the Vikings, but directly from the Danes and possibly the Norwegians too.
Malin Elisabeth Nilsson So "The children have been breaking (riva sönder, riving apart, taking apart, ta sönder)...something?
Arief Wibowo I would try my luck with saying wolls = wools
(Wiktionary entry of wool: Middle English wolle, from Old English wull, [...])
(Wiktionary entry of wool: Middle English wolle, from Old English wull, [...])
Sarah Karoline Malin: "riving" is the dialectal word, and the standard English word is very similar to "breaking/tearing". It starts with "r", and is our form of "riva".
Malin Elisabeth Nilsson In swedish its called barn to "The children have been ripping the day apart?
"The children have been ripping the day apart?Arief Wibowo Wait, the "Indonesianization" thing (envelope becomes amplop) also happens in English???
Sarah Karoline "Rífa" is also in Old Norse/Old Icelandic/Modern Icelandic. According to my dictionary, we invested in it from the "dialect" of the Danish invaders. The Swedish Vikings preferring to go eastwards.
Malin: Ripping x, but not the day
Malin: Ripping x, but not the day
Arief Wibowo daan could be "apart" (as in: ripping apart) or "'all" (as in: ripping all the [wolls])
Sarah Karoline So far we have:
Dialectal: The berns have been riving x the x today.
=>
Standard: The children have been ripping/tearing the x apart today.
Dialectal: The berns have been riving x the x today.
=>
Standard: The children have been ripping/tearing the x apart today.
Sarah Karoline Malin: "wool" You are close in spelling, but not in meaning.
Arief: "Daan" is like a standard English word.
You are close in spelling, but not in meaning. Arief: "Daan" is like a standard English word.
Sarah Karoline Malin: A word that is similar in length, but a different meaning
Malin, Arief: I hope you're enjoying this! haha
Malin, Arief: I hope you're enjoying this! haha
Maria Weidner Vincensiu the f -> p thing is very common. Just think about latin Pater -> germanic father, Vater...
Sarah Karoline Yay! Vincensiu: "walls" "down".
Vincensiu, Arief, Maria, Malin: Do we know what it means?
"down".Vincensiu, Arief, Maria, Malin: Do we know what it means?
Sarah Karoline Update:
Dialectal: The berns have been riving down the walls today.
Standard: The childen have been ripping/tearing the walls apart today.
+So, for an extra bonus point. What does it mean?!

Sarah Karoline Does anyone want to guess the meaning?
Hint: It tells us something about how the children are feeling.

Marius Vincenzii Dennischter Maybe similar to "kebakaran jenggot" in Indo.
Making too much trouble because they r extremely happy

Marius Vincenzii Dennischter Im on my galaxy atm coz I'm in the middle of making breakfast atm, so will b quite slow.
Arief Wibowo Unfortunately, Sarah Karoline, we can't And usually only the literal translation counts. Guessing the meaning or riddle answer out of the literal translation is kinda a mini game while waiting for next round to start

Guessing the meaning or riddle answer out of the literal translation is kinda a mini game while waiting for next round to start Maria Weidner it is always very funny when you say you are on your Galaxy... hehehe I imagine how you are floating somewhere in the space.. 
Marius Vincenzii Dennischter I dont know if I deserve to b d winner since I just jumped in. Arief has been struggling to decipher the most of it and Malin figured out the meaning.
Sarah Karoline OK, Vincensiu Denis is the winner The Game is on its way, on a Viking Boat Ship with Flóki and Yngie at the helm.
Lycka till

Malin Elisabeth Nilsson Kom igen Vincensiu! En mening att översätta skulle vara underbart! Vi väntar!
Arief Wibowo I don't know much Swedish, but I guess Vincensiu Denis just get The Progenitor's blessing to start his round... Which probably would be Auslan

Indonesian? too many fluent Indo speakers around Maria, CJM and Arief,
