We have added the animate noun "dog", however any animate noun can be used in its place. The conjunct statements are used to answer, as a question, or as a subordinant clause. For this reason we have also added the Independent statement "it is good" in order to offer a complete example. This can be replaced with any independent statement.

We have added "wskebi" meaning "perhaps" but any interrogative or demonstrative pronoun (like "how, where, when") could be used in its place. For example, "t8ni namih8an" meaning "where do you see a dog?"
