Introduction to Sambahsa:
Lesson 39

By mundialecter

Now, let’s translate The slaves are afraid of the masters into Sambahsa. To express to be afraid of, Sambahsa uses just one word : bay, IPA baj. The aj sound counts here as a vowel, so the ending for the 3° plural person is -nt. "Slave" is sclav, IPA sklav. In this sentence, both slaves and masters are of different genders.

The slaves are afraid of the masters.

Answer: I sclavs baynt i maysters.
