Aena storia devota,
gamnandu Emile Deittar.

Chechieche gridau nella dauþa gadrauttoro, ag impotente, era volneravole.
Giabae rogia ovela, gio non scola sveltare anche?
Turevelche rimuoveda, gio gevada tiranni.
Giabae rogia goda, gio non scola sic punire anche?
Sciuive scola dauþire Chechieche, ag liberada.
Giabae vesare bleiþo, faur Chechieche è vesare devole.
Consequenze gio sensi sondo diversi, carinu, faur non alli i ideali magando stare nello mezzogardo.
Non vesare erroneu, vesare godu è rette, ag vesare arrogante è non avere aeno piano.
Ognaenu praeferi diversamente, alla la devozzone è selva oscia.
Presto il gufu emenicu quemarà, carinu, non ganare alla lancia fegiandi, ag alla nulla.

Notes

General

1. Luthic is a V2 language, usually SVO with right symmetry, noun-adjective order and uses only prepositions.
2. The dative in Luthic expresses the indirect object, an action for or something concerning other thing.
3. The genitive in Luthic may also express the behaviour of certain thing, e.g. the adverb/conjunction "as".
4. Luthic is a null subject language (its grammar permits an independent clause to lack an explicit subject).
