Wrik Chatterjee Okay, here's round 211. Of course I get stuck with an ugly prime number that you can get by adding three other ugly prime numbers. This one's a little short (maybe to offset how hard Anna and Helene's round was), but it'll probably be hard nonetheless.

Jake Kissinger LOL, Anna, how did you get it so quickly!? I already knew what language it was, though I don't know what it says, so I promised not to open my dictionary until someone figured out the language, but I guess I don't need to worry about that anymore.
Anna Robbins Well, I could tell it was a Native American language, and I searched for a word, and Miami was the first language that popped up. xD
Anna Robbins I've been perusing the myaamiadictionary site, but haven't come across anything as of yet 
Sarah Karoline I haven't looked at it yet 
I'd literally just found it.. Hm, perhaps the other two will be helpful... (crosses fingers)
I'd literally just found it.. Hm, perhaps the other two will be helpful... (crosses fingers)Jake Kissinger Is there no way to just search for words on that site? I have a dictionary, but there are a couple words I can't find.
Anna Robbins That's the issue with the site... and I think it's because some of the words change form, so you'd have to find their original form, but as I'm not familiar with the grammar of Myaamia, it's not going too quickly
Sarah Karoline If you search from this page, words appear.

Anna Robbins Here's what happened. The morphing involves /prefixes/, so watch out for how the words start.
Sarah Karoline I've accidentally come across the answer, so I shall have to keep out 
I only searched a word and that word was part of the text.

Aapwe||pyaa|ta||kwitakaki||mihtohseenia|ki||neew|aa|ciki||saakiiweeyonki.
||back||come|he/she||___||person/Indian|plural||see|_|they||confluence|at||
He/she comes back ___ the people/Indians they see at the confluence.
I'm not sure about the "aa" in "neewaaciki." I hope it's just to connect the two morphemes "neew-" & "-ciki," but IDK.

Wrik Chatterjee I'm at a tire shop right now, so I don't have access to the gloss I wrote for this. Review forthcoming.
Wrik Chatterjee Sorry this took a bit. Your word-to-morpheme breakdown in your gloss is perfect, but it isn't in your original text. In this case I think you're close to right about the aa in neewaaciki; you just need to check the tense. The word you left untranslated is connected in meaning to the word after it; if you can't find it, I might just give it to you. After that, just clean it up a bit and you'll have it.
Wrik Chatterjee Now you've got the right verb tense. Here's a hint-the beginning of this sentence would probably best be rendered as a relative clause in English.
Wrik Chatterjee That's even closer, Billy, but you still have to rearrange some of those words and pick a different conjunction. Also you forgot a word.
Wrik Chatterjee For clarification, the missing word was "others." Smoothly, "when he came back, the other people saw him at the confluence."
Marius Vincenzii Dennischter Shoot, that was pure stjalcuri, a bit of intuition and common sense without dictionary :p
Jake Kissinger I was just glad to have competition since I figured there probably wouldn't be any other people owning a dictionary in Myaamia.
