Marius Vincenzii Dennischter Ta = take
gennallys marish = with joyful
poagey follym = empty bag
marish poagey lane = with full bag

poor Brad, only 1 out of 9 tags worked. :p

Brad Wilson
Brad Wilson Vincensiu you have follym, lane, marish correct. poagey, not so much

Jake Kissinger
Jake Kissinger -um isn't plural; I'm pretty sure it's dative. The dative plural of "mónum" is "móunum;" I couldn't find it's declension, but Ava told me that skorningum is plural and dative.

Brad Wilson
Brad Wilson aaargh ... tagging still not working - it looks like Jake was the only one whose tag actually stuck
Mon, 2014-08-18 01:54:12 - #5 - ?265
Brad Wilson
Brad Wilson Yea, apparently it won't let me tag anyone, even one at a time :-p
Mon, 2014-08-18 02:05:12 - #5 - ?265
Brad Wilson
Brad Wilson Here was Vincensiu's words:
[Ta] (joyful) with {poagey} empty [ny share na anvea] with {poagey} full.
[] still to be translated {} incorrect () concept OK, better word

Marius Vincenzii Dennischter
Marius Vincenzii Dennischter I am happier with empty pocket who is better than someone with full pocket
Mon, 2014-08-18 02:21:29 - #6 - ?265
Brad Wilson
Brad Wilson {I am happier} with empty pocket {who} is better than {someone} with full pocket. ... There are no pronouns here.
Mon, 2014-08-18 02:41:25 - #7 - ?265
Brad Wilson
Brad Wilson ... although "happier" is the right concept, just wrong part of speech
Mon, 2014-08-18 02:42:17 - #7 - ?265
Marius Vincenzii Dennischter
Marius Vincenzii Dennischter To be happy with empty pocket is better than sad with full pocket?
mejor?
Mon, 2014-08-18 02:43:03 - #8 - ?265
Brad Wilson
Brad Wilson much better, but the words gennallys and anvea can be glossed better
Mon, 2014-08-18 02:45:18 - #9 - ?265
Jake Kissinger
Jake Kissinger What language is this, BTW?

Jake Kissinger
Jake Kissinger Would "happiness" be better for "gennallys?"
Mon, 2014-08-18 02:47:10 - #12 - ?265
Brad Wilson
Brad Wilson You've got the right part of speech (noun) and I could accept it
Mon, 2014-08-18 02:47:59 - #13 - ?265
Brad Wilson
Brad Wilson The word ta has not been glossed properly ... well, I guess it has, but the structure was wrong
Mon, 2014-08-18 02:48:46 - #13 - ?265
Marius Vincenzii Dennischter
Marius Vincenzii Dennischter Is happiness with empty pocket still better than sorrow with full pocket

is it a statement or a question?
Mon, 2014-08-18 02:55:31 - #14 - ?265
Brad Wilson
Brad Wilson aah, you must understand the Celtic sentence structure for that :-)
Mon, 2014-08-18 03:00:41 - #15 - ?265
Marius Vincenzii Dennischter
Marius Vincenzii Dennischter that makes it difficult since I don't speak any Germanic or Celtic apart of English.
Mon, 2014-08-18 03:36:58 - #16 - ?265
Marius Vincenzii Dennischter
Marius Vincenzii Dennischter Since you mentioned that there are no pronouns, the best I can go with is:
A happiness with empty pocket still better than sorrow with full pocket.

Brad Wilson
Brad Wilson Well, I will tell you that Celtic languages are VSO

Brad Wilson
Brad Wilson My source has "Cheerfulness with an empty pocket is better than discontent with a full pocket", but your gloss is close enough. :-)
