Ǔdir lānku angulawwa.
Awwa angulallānūk āldir.
Awwa allānūk āldir.
"The universe is within us."

Code: Select all

universe	sit<3sm>\NPST.GNO	within=1p.INCL
ǔdir		lān<∅>ku		angul=awwa 

OR:

1p.INCL	(within=)CIRC-sit<1p.INCL>\NPST.GNO	TOP=universe
awwa	(angul=)l~lān<w>uk			āl=ǔdir
The raising of SAP with circumstantial voice is probably more idiomatic. The clitic "within" is not obligatory, but without it, the raised phrase is somewhat ambiguous, and could also mean that the universe is "near us" or "around us".
