Once there was a very hungry crocodile.

He searched for food slowly and quietly. And then…


Wiyu!!! Iŋwena yaikata icakulya!

POW!!! The crocodile strikes!


Panuma yakulya, Iŋwena yaikuta kabili yasansamuka.

After that he is no longer hungry, and he is happy.


Mpaka yaumfwa insala na kabili.

Until he gets hungry again.
