Okay, I want, the thing that I want, so that I talk a talk about, now, (these) kinds of our children who would go to a place that teaches learning (i.e., to schools).

To / hen zem / bi goezem noe / de hen k'wal k'wal k'a / nd'asoenoehoe / nye / jap men goet'ong mûen / mpe goeshe bi she.

Uh, you know learning?

Uh / goe man bi she?

When a person is able, uh, finds, uh, knowledge, (when) he would know the things, all the little things.

Gurum la b'oot / uh / kat / uh / bi man / ni t'ong man / bi / jap bi dip.

He would know how it goes with his market.

Ni t'ong man / boet'ong mûaan goe / loet'uk muk.

He would know how it goes with his field.

Ni t'ong man boemûaan goe / zam muk.

He would know how it goes with his work that he would do.

Ni t'ong man boemûaan goe / shit muk / goet'ong shin muk.

The person who refuses to do learning, (who) refuses to go to school, he wouldn't be able to know anything.

Gurum goepe / nyang goe shin bi she / nyang goe shin makaranta / ni t'ong b'oot goe man ndoe bi ba.

(He) wouldn't be able (to do) writing.

Boeb'oot bi yil ba.

(He) wouldn't be able, uh, to--, count his money.

Boeb'oot / uh / de-goe n-- / kun sool muk ba.

(He) wouldn't be able to--, lie down (in writing) the little things to be able to write a letter (and) send (it) to his brother, or maybe--, to his mother's brother over there (in) a far away place.

Boeb'oot de-goe n-- / b'ûet / jap bi de-goe nb'oot de-goe nyil / longvilip poe / nyam nûûn muk ko=- / nk'en muk pûanang / pe goeseng ba.

Do you think that the thing is good?

Goe rang pe bi =hok d'ong a?

How would (it) be (so that it) is good, hey?

T'ong shin a nd'ang d'ong ai?

Hey, (there are no) worries.

Hai weel.

Those school children--, uh, those, those who have learning.

Moejap makar-- / uh / moe / moegoe bi she.

Yes.

Mh.

(This is) indeed the truth.

A nye goed'emen kem.

You know, the earth nowadays, (in) the old times, when adult people--, uh, adult people (lit., people of black heads) moved (around) (i.e., were alive), they, uh, didn't learn anything.

Goe man / yil nd'asoenoe / a dok poeb'it / goepe / gurum k'-- / uh / gurum k'ek moetep leng / mûep / uh / she ndoe bi ba.

They went out (in) their own ways (and) would sit.

Mûep / p'ûat bi mûep t'ong t'wot.

They counted their numbers with hands.

Mûep wun bi wun mûep / a ns'a.

Yes.

Mh.

And they, they, (do you) remember the thing (that) was a rope (that they) would tie?

Mûep kuma mûep k'oerek bi a k'yang t'ong d'yan yi?

Yes.

Mh.

(They) would count the days of the month with it.

T'ong wun b'it t'aar nni.

Yes.

Mh.

Money, when they found (it), they returned (and) sat here.

Sool / goepe mûep la kat / mûep buk doe t'wot.

Then when they took out the rope, so that they talk, they kept (it and) found, uh, the money gives, uh, little things that they found, behold, (here they) are, the things that they found, behold, (here they) are.

Sai mûep la p'ûan a / t'yang =hok / de mûep k'wal yi / mûep d'u kat / uh / sool poe / uh / jap bi goekat du na nd'e / bi goekat du na nd'e.

Okay, you see, this existing learning, this existing learning comes with very good things.

To / goe na karatu nd'ennoehoe / bi she nd'ennoehoe / doe goe bi goed'emen p'uur.

Yes.

Mh.

(It) comes with children to know everything.

Doe goe jap / de-goe man ko=mmoe.

Whatever child, this nowadays, (he) knows the things that he is inside.

Ko-la goenang nd'asoend'ennoehoe / man / bi goed'e muk nd'ûûn.

Yes.

Mh.

The worries that everyone is inside (i.e., that everyone has), he knows the thing that he would do.

Weel goed'e ko=wuroe nd'ûûn / ni man bi goet'ong shin muk.

Yes.

Mh.

Because of this, indeed, learning is very good.

Nyegoesek dai / bi she / d'ong p'uur.

Yes.

Mh.

Yes.

Mh.

Do you think that among the children, those who are going (for) learning now, (that among them there) are some (of) our children (and) they, sh--, get lost (i.e., stray from the right way) (and they) would hang around in the bush?

Goe rang pe / nd'ûûn / jap moepe mûep d'e t'ong mûen / bi she yi nd'asoenoe / d'emde jap men mûep / sh-- / pap / t'ong leng nd'ûûn s'et?

When (someone) goes out to go (for) learning, (he) returns (and) goes, so (he) should turn (and) arrive at a different place, so (he should) hang around, so (he) would turn.

D'a p'et de-goe mûaan bi she =hok / ba mûaan goe yir yi ya ndoe pe goek'em / lang yi t'ong yir yi.

They smoke (lit. drink smoke).

Mûep / s'wa / d'yel.

They, uh, steal stealing.

Mûep / uh / mûûr mûûr.

They do all the little things.

Mûep / shin / gwen jap bi dip.

(This is) not really a good thing.

A bi goed'emen kwa ba.

Because of this, the thing, the thing of earlier times, (it) again returns (and) comes back (and) arrives again on us.

Nyegoesek / bi / bi goedok poeb'it / ba ba wa wul zak-yit nk'a men.

Those, those children refuse now, uh, to go to the place of learning, everywhere.

Moe / moejap nyak d'em / uh / goe mûen / mpe bi she dip.

They, because they think that, that maybe even when they go (for) the learning, they would rise (and) not find any work here.

Mûep / nyegoepe mûep rang pe / de ko la du mûen bi she =hok ma / t'ong yo du doe kat shit ba.

They really don't know.

Mûep man kwa ba.

When you find, when you go to the school, to a good place, when you go and eat (i.e., succeed), you return home, you would return home to find work to do.

La goe kat / d'a goe mûaan mmakaranta =hok / mpe goed'emen / d'a goe mûaan goe-goe s'oe / goe wa / t'ong goe wa de-goe kat shit goeshin.

If you refuse to, to do work, you would return (and) hang around, uh, you do the sort of thieving.

D'a goe nyang goe / goe shin shit / t'ong goe ba goe lang / uh / goe shin a nye mûûr hok.

Because your father would not find money to give you.

Nyepe nda goe boet'ong kat sool de-goe poe goe ba.

Your mother would not find money to give you.

Nûûn goe boet'ong kat sool de-goe poe goe ba.

The food that you would eat, you would (have to) search (it) by yourself, because you have already grown up.

S'oe goet'ong s'oe goe / t'ong goe tang toe goe k'a sak / nyepe goe f'yer d'emt'ei.

(Maybe) the people of (your) father who would return (and) go to--, so that (he) should put food (and) return home, he gives (the food to) you here, so that you eat (it and) return home.

Gwen nda goet'ong ba mûaan de-goe / de goe / loe s'oe yi / wa / ni doe poe goe de goe s'oe yi wa.

Because of this, I think like this, our children do a very bad thing now.

Nyegoesek / hen rang poenoe / jap men / shin bi goenyan nd'asoenoe p'uur.

The thing that we should do with them, uh, so that we pull their ears (i.e., rebuke or warn them).

Bi goepe t'ong moe shin ndoe mûep toe / uh / de moe / del k'wam mûep.

Okay, what/how would you think about (this), so how (would) we pull their ears?

To / bi goerang goe nd'ang k'a / de moe del k'wam mûep a nd'ang?

You know, (for) one (thing), so that we talk (and) say, uh, this school where the children are stopping to go (to).

Goe man goeme / de moe k'wal moe yi / uh / makaranta nnoe goepe jap / d'e t'ong d'eet goe mûen yi.

Yes.

Mh.

The thing, we, those, (our) fathers and mothers, we make (it), uh, we came, (we) came with something that prevented them from learning.

Bi =hok / men / moe moenda / ndoe moenûûn / moe sa / uh / moe doe / doe goe ndoe / bi goeden mûep sek karatu.

Yes.

Mh.

You take the child, you are (there), uh, the kind of--, so that (he) should be going (for) learning.

Goe mang la / goe d'e / uh / nye / de goe d'e t'ong mûaan bi she yi.

You go out in the morning, you show him everything that (he) would do.

Goe p'et mb'itlung / goe nin ni goe ko=mmoe goepe t'ong shin.

You, uh, you have your load, you take (it and) return with it (and) give (it to) the child.

Goe / uh / goe goe le goe / goe mang goe ba nni goe poe la.

Money is at your place, you collect (it and) return with it (and) give (it to) the child.

Sool d'e pe goe / goe war goe ba nni goe poe la.

When (he) goes out (and) goes to sit over there, (when he) buys something to--, tobacco to smoke.

Yes.

Mh.

(He) returns (and) refuses here, uh, the learning, and (he) goes.

Ba doe nyang / uh / bi she =hok goe mûaan.

This existing learning that he would refuse, he (would) put his mind to what?

Bi she goet'ong nyang muk nd'ennoe / ni b'ûet an muk a k'a mmoe?

(To) stealing.

A mûûr.

Stealing, stealing, (this is) it, indeed.

Mûûr / mûûr / a ni toe kai.

So (you) sit (him) down first. Yes.

D'u yi ntyem muk. Mh.

He does not refuse, (it is) necessary.

Ni nyang ba / dole.

This existing stealing, so (it is) a thing that (just) happens, or what? (I.e., what causes all this stealing?)

Mûûr nd'ennoehoe / a bi goedoe toe yi ko mmoe?

Okay, when the child takes to stealing, sit (him) down first, you should go with him, you yourself, however, (saying) that you (are) his father, you are not happy (with him).

To / la la mang a mûûr =hok d'u ntyem muk / t'ong mûaan nni / goe goe k'a sak zak / goepe goe nda muk / t'yak goe pya ba.

The mother should not be happy.

(Tell him) if (he) exits (and) goes, just all the siblings would (be) at the thing of insulting (him).

La p'et mûaan / moejapnûûn kûût dibit / goet'ong a mbi goenvûang.

Because of this, (it is) how--, (it would be) good (if) we (would) rise (and) stand in order that we pull their ears.

Nyegoesek / a boe / d'ong moe yûûl moe d'yam / de-goe de moe del k'wam mûep yi.

We should call them, the child, when you have a child who is there, everywhere, (you) would receive him, (you) return (and) sit (him) down here, (you) pull his ear, (you) speak thoroughly with him.

T'ong moe yong mûep la / goepe goe goe la muk / goepe ni nd'e / ko=nnang / t'ong lap ni / ba doe d'u / del k'wam muk / kut kut ndoe ni nt'it.
