bring his blood on us, make us responsible for his death
The Greek that is translated into English as “make us responsible for his death” or “bring his blood on us” is translated into Fuyug as “throw his blood on our backs.”
died and fell down, order of events
In Purari, one needs to state events in their logical order, i.e. “died and fell down,” assuming they fell because they were already struck dead.
sell houses
In Fuyug society houses are not being sold so the Fuyug translation says that “riches” are being sold instead.
Beautiful Gate
The Greek term that is translated into English as “Beautiful Gate (of the temple)” is translated into Purari as “the Door with Patterns.”
object in passive voice construct
In Kahua, it was not possible to omit a grammatical object in the passive voice construct that described that the lame man was carried. The translation added the “wantoks,” i.e. people of the same language group, probably from the same village.
he will speak of what he hears
The phrase that is translated into English as “he will speak of what he hears” is rendered in Pwo Karen as “he will lean his ear to my speech, then tell you.”
sea grew rough, sea rose
The phrase that is translated as “the sea (lake) grew rough / rose” in English is translated in Fuyug as “the water began to fight.”
