Filler text is text that shares some characteristics of a real written text, but is random or otherwise generated. It may be used to display a sample of fonts, generate text for testing, or to spoof an e-mail spam filter. The process of using filler text is sometimes called greeking, although the text itself may be nonsense, or largely Latin, as in Lorem ipsum.

Pangali is a strongly head-final language with all complements preceding their heads, the major exception being the formulation of compound words following a head-intial framework.
=== Clauses ===
The primary word order is consistently OSV, regardless of clause type or number of complements to the verb. Independent clauses are treated as heads, therefore dependent clauses shall always precede them.


== Noun Phrase ==
'''{{red|''Ntimumi}} {{blue|wampushi}} {{green|kuwishikawi}}''''' - '''{{blue|The father}} {{green|is feeding}} {{red|the animal}}'''; '''''{{blue|Unantimu}} {{green|ishikawi}}''''' - '''{{blue|the animal}} {{green|is eating}}'''.
