Inrinni ni na na na ‘Rinni’ tih ching pawh an awm, lam kim hahthlak an ti viau ni maw.
Sap leh Vai an lo lian a, ‘lirthei’ tak tak kan lo hmelhriat chho ta a. ‘Lir thei’ nazawng chu ‘lirthei’ ti loin, khawl hmang chin chu ‘lirthei’ kan ti a, ‘lirthei’ tih chu tun thlengin hmang reng tho mah ila, a Sap tawng ‘motor’ tih hi hun bul atanga hman thin sa a ni ve reng a. Chumi kan ziah dan chu a ni kan sawi dawn ni.

Hming bik a awm leh a, chu chu grammar thiamte bawkin ‘proper noun’ an ti a, hei erawh hi chu a hawrawp hmasa ber hi hawrawppui hman ngei ngei tur a ni thung.
Lirthei sawina chi hrang hrang, a pianzia azir te, a hmanna azir tea sawina reng reng hi common noun vek a ni.

Kan hman dan lo en tawh ila. Khawlkungi chuan a thawnthu ziah ‘Chantawka Khawrel’ tihah, “Kan chuanna tur Motor pawh a lo thleng tawh,” tih a hmang a, hei hi ziah dan dik lo chu a ni. Sap tawng a nih avangin a ropui sawt bik chuang lo a, hawrawppui hman ngawtna tur a ni lo. A thlavang hauhin, a ziak uluk lo palh a ni ang, kan ti thei.

Chu vang chuan, Sap tawng a nih avangin hawrawppuiin a ziak tan chawt zel a ni tih a chiang hle.
