_Vengeance is sweet_, tamăzilt-n-era tazēd.
_He has revenged on them the blood of his father_, izel dassen
áshĕni-n-shís.
_I beat you_, nek wātak.
_He beat him, till the blood came out_, yawat, har tegmad áshen.
[Note: _Erā_, the debt of blood. _Azal_ was at first written by Barth as
with ص. I suspect it is here سال, and means demand. _Zal_ is of many
roots in Kab.
_Azēd, azīd_, sweet.
_Áshĕni_, blood, is nearly as in Hausa. In Kab. we find _idemmin_, as if
Arabic pl.
_Shi_ or _ti_, father.
_Yawat_, “he beat,” is the root, as in Kab. _Tegmad_ (with adverbial _d_
final), from _igem_, he went out; Temght, not Kab.]
