From Canoe Mates in Canada: Three Boys Afloat on the Saskatchewan by St. George Rathborne

Kneeling in a "bullboat," fashioned from the skin of an animal, and wielding a paddle with the dexterity only to be attained after years of practice in canoeing, a sturdily-built and thoroughly bronzed Canadian lad glanced ever and anon back along the course over which he had so recently passed; and then up at the black storm clouds hurrying out of the mysterious North.

Considering that he was in so vast a wilderness, this adventurous lad appeared to have scant luggage in his well battered bullboat — indeed, beyond the buckskin jacket, which he had thrown off because of his exertions, there did not seem to be anything at all aboard the craft, not even a gun, by means of which he might provide himself with food while on the journey downstream.

Is your sister coming for you?

Pali	o-pepa	akasa	saĭ-emiri	paĭ	pepa?
how	GEN-2s	sister	LAT-here	for	you

The pronoun used can reveal why the question is being asked. Here, they are asking how you are leaving, as opposed to who you are leaving with (why not me?), when you are leaving (is it going to be a while?) or even why it's happening (is your sister making you leave?) The most polite pronoun is taa, asking for a simple yes/no answer.

Can you come tomorrow?

Pepa	taa	saĭ-emori	astoku?
2s	yes/no	LAT-there	tomorrow

The interrogative pronoun precedes a regular noun, but follows a personal pronoun.

Taa	posko-pu	si	palaku	ia	totof-ilo	oĭl-uĭlo?
yes/no	bird-INDF	with	chest	red	sing-3PL.AN	LOC-rain

When talking about a generic noun, the noun receives -pu without any number marker, but the verb takes the 3rd person plural with the proper animacy. (The language lacks a word for 'robin', hence 'bird with red chest'.) This becomes optional when the genericness is implied via quantity adjectives like 'all' or 'many'.

Aluko-pu	tio	aĭk-sestaka-pu	ium-io	oplo	t́at́io

Si sestaka is also acceptable, as "man" and "walking stick" don't share the same animacy. However, the comitative prefix is used due to the man being inseparable from the walking stick.

Es is used for passive-voice constructions such as the above, similar to how English uses "to be". Es takes the active conjugation while the passive verb takes the participle form.
