==Schleicher's PIE fable rendered into Proto-Lusanic==
Here follows a 'direct' phonetic evolution of the reconstructed PIE text in Proto-Lusanic.

===Notes===
<ref name="bhitar">Better do this in the morning, eh?</ref>
<ref name="ivanin">Aiduvitić harshly criticised Morningway's reconstruction in '''Why Morningway is Wrong: An unhealthy focus on Finio-Dhannic vocalism''' and was the first to derive forms including Limbe-Mereian data.</ref>
<ref name="karl">Representing a late Proto-Lusanic dialect probably basal to the Finio-Dhannic branch with w-contamination.</ref>
