Skubibauss en Pao

To try and regain motivation to work on my translation of Starkit's Prophecy into Clanmew (the Warrior Cats conlang of @troutfur and @bonefall), I wrote an original story in Clanmew, set in the Better Bones AU and inspired by a story I read in a book of Filipino folktales from the 1920s.

Provided here is that story, an English translation, and an interlinear gloss.

I've kind of simplified the gloss? I still say, like, jussive and genitive, but I've also used "verbed" rather than "verb.PST" and such. It's mostly in the interest of legibility.

In the gloss, a full stop . represents multiple English morphemes being part of the same Clanmew morpheme, and a hyphen - represents the boundary between two Clanmew morphemes.

Lacking words for "give" and "take," I commandeered "prreerreerr," extending it in meaning from "to bring" to "to bring forward, to present" and from there to "to surrender or give," and "hageeshi," extending it in meaning from "to bring" to "to bring with or take."

Bab erra rriu Washa-ulnyams urr-rrehen.
