:: Practice 5 – Translating

I’m learning Cham Language, but I dun have any syllabus. Except for the grammar, I do the rest myself. But thank Allah because he sent me a companion. I do learn a lot from him, the Whiteman call it “an angle”. I go after his path, and abit “copying” his style...hihi.. He likes to play with musics, translating other languages into Cham. So now I’m trying to play that kind of game..hmm, pretty fun! Maybe this post seemed to be “rubbish” but this is one of the way to comprehend the nearly extinct language okay.

Below is an Indonesian song sang by Ria Resti Fauzi. She was also famous in Malaysia too.

~ Anit Ranem Kau Tel Ethiopia ~

Mâyah biak hâ ranem kau

Ngan mâyah hâ biak anit...

Puec baik..so satiak hâ..

Mâyah hâ biak biak kieng

Taong abih drep kau tok hâ

Suan ngan yawa kau..taong abih tok hâ..

Okan mâh priak ...

Jang okan tanyak dunya

Honeymoon kau oh likau

Mâyah drei hu daok taongdua

Kau jang buy sambai

Pak halei hâ nao kau si tuei hâ

Biai o gac nao tel hajung dunya..

Juai biai Cek Fujiyama

Tel Cek Himalaya kau tuei hâ

Juai biai nao Palei Kur

Tel Ethiopia kau tuei hâ

Mâyah biak hâ khap kau

Tel ut baoh haluk kau si tuei

Juai..juai..juai baik hâ oh jier..

Juai..juai..juai oh jier anit mâng kau

Juai..juai..juai hâ klak kau tiak

Juai...juai...juai hâ wer so satiak hâ

Juai..juai..juai baik hâ oh jier..

Juai..juai..juai kanda huec tiak...

Biak kau anit hâ....

Vocabulary:

kieng, khing, khin = mahu / want

:: Practice 4 – Reading + Rumi Transcript 2

-Ariya Muk Thruh Palei-

Source : http://my.opera.com/vanikan/blog/2009/10/09/ariya-muk-thruh-palei

Day 1: One page was read. I read it barely and almost give up!

Day 2: Three pages.

Day 3: Ten pages + explanation from teacher.

My comment: This literary writing is not really long, and using simple words (either bombastic words as well) BUT the combination of those simple words turns my head into blank. I found out there are some idioms in it, eg: “mâyah per habuw lai jua abih” ; they are not talking about “dust” and “silence” . I don’t really get this ariya but someway somehow I can understand the whole story behind this writing, and the understanding gets stronger after the explanation by teacher. Later I’ll try to transcript it into Huruf Cam, later later later..someday, after I learn it..hihi..

Muk Thruh Palei roles the character of “nenek kebayan” in Malay literature, which, this character is responsible to preserve the proper behavior of the Malays. I realize that the new generation like us don’t used to this character as a good person because our minds were contaminated with false tales. I’ve heard the word “muk sruh palei” since I was 4 years old, and I was so afraid of her, I thought she was a ghost! I ran to get my mom, and have nightmares every night. I bet the same situation happen when we talk about “nenek kebayan”! Don’t believe it? Try to google “nenek kebayan”.

The rumi transcription may differ from one another. Eg: the word “listen” is spelled “peng” but pronounce “pang”, so, some of the reader will transcript it as “peng” and some other prefer “pang”. But this is not a major problem because Rumi Cam transcription and Huruf Cam transcription are not yet fixed like Akhar Cam. I’m not going to translate it into other languages, for now, because; firstly, I’m not an expert, and secondly I dun want my people to be spoilt. They should learn their writings IN their own language, not by other languages. Believe me, it’s so amazing playing with our own script!! But dun forget to ask blessings from Allah al-Alim, ‘cause this language is His!

Well, I think EVERY girl should read this ariya. It teaches me a lot. =)

Gosh, did I said it “not really long” ???! Not really long doesn't mean it's short. =|

The funny thing about this practice is that the text used the word “Inâ” but it is taught by a dad!! ..which it should be a mother who is responsible about this matter...there’s no word “Ong Thruh Palei”..hiihii..

Anyway, I admit that I can’t make it 100% well in this practice. I’m always ready for any correction, thank U.
