2. | Father was doing his best to persevere but it was obvious that he was growing hopeless and uneasy. P1027 | Jema ekar kate wōt ak elukkuun alikkar an dedodo im addiṃakoko. | addiṃakoko |
3. | “This part of the ocean feels a bit spooky,” Father said at the same time the incident occurred. P1036 | Āinwōt meto jab in ebaj aeto,” Jema ekar ba ejja ilo minit eo wōt ekar waḷọk men in. | aeto |
4. | He's light skinned because his father is a white American. | Eaiṇokko kōnke nejin ri-pālle. | aiṇokko |
5. | His being an offspring of a Japanese father gives him a light complexion. | An nejin ri-Jepaan ekaaiṇokkoiki. | aiṇokko |
6. | “It seems like the wind has picked up,” Father said. P697 | Āinwōt ej baj ḷapḷọk kōto in?” Jema ekar ba. | āinwōt |
7. | Speak softly for my father is sleeping. | Kwōn ajjinono bwe ekiki baba. | ajjinono |
8. | He's learning as much as he can while his father is here. | Ej ājḷor ke jemān ej ja pād. | ājḷor |
9. | Father thought for a long time, but because the two men continued to insist, he said he would try. P21 | Eto an Jema ḷōmṇak ak ke ḷōṃaro ruo rōkar akweḷap wōt, ekar ba ke enaaj kajjioñ. | akweḷap |
10. | In the legend Inedel was given only wrasse to eat by his father. | Ek eo kijen Inedel jān jemān ilo bwebwenato eo ej alle. | alle |
11. | “Father, can I go watch them play dice?” I asked. P150 | “Jema e, eṃṃan ke ñe itōn aluje aer taij?” ikajjitōk. | aluje |
12. | When the boat was securely anchored, Father and the Boatswain jumped into the water and swam toward the island with our water container. P1251 | Ke ekar dedeḷọk emjake wa eo, Jema im Bojin erro kar kālọk im aō āne ḷọk kōn kōb eo ammān. | am |
13. | Those two were still talking and as I raised my head and looked toward the island I caught a glimpse of Father on the shore side of the wharf. P84 | Erro ej kōnono wōt ak iḷak bōk bōra im rōre āne ḷọk ilo animrokan Jema iturun ṃweo iānein wab eo. | āne |
14. | “And let him know there is land up ahead,” Father said. P1215 | “Kab jujen kōjjeḷāiki ke ān eo e i ṃaan,” Jema ebaj ba. | āneo |
15. | God our Father in heaven. | Anij Jemādwōj ilañ. | Anij |
16. | Almighty God our father tells us not to worship idols. | Anij Ḷapḷap jemādwōj ej ba jen jab kabuñ ñan anij raṇ. | anij raṇ |

18. | Once the boat was in the water, Father and the Boatswain loaded the things they were carrying and paddled over to the Likabwiro. P1267 | Ke ej dedeḷọk im pād wa in i lọjet, Jema im Bojin eo erro ektaki ḷọk men ko ippāerro im aōṇōṇ meto tak ñan Likabwiro. | aōṇōṇ |
19. | After he jumped down, Father took some of the stuff from me. P137 | Eḷak baj to laḷ ḷọk Jema eapdik men ko ippa. | apdik |
20. | “Serve yourself first, Son,” said Father. P376 | Ātet kijōṃ ṃokta, nejū,” Jema eba. | ātet |
21. | He's named after his father. | Ej ātṇake jemān. | ātṇak |
22. | “Yeah, don’t underestimate their strength,” Father said. P1051 | “Ekwe lale kwaar atowaani,” Jema eba. | atowaan |
23. | He was caught by the girl's father. [He was outed …] | Ear auj jān jemān ledik eo. | auj |
24. | “I know there are because I can see smoke,” Father said. P1243 | “Alikkar ke eor bwe ebaatat,” Jema eba. | baatat |
25. | Not long after, Father showed up. P324 | Ejab etto jān iien eo ak ebaj waḷọk tok Jema. | baj |
26. | “What about you, Father, what do you think we should do now?” I asked. P827 | “Ak baj kwe Jema, ta ṇe kwōj lale ekkar kiin?” ikajjitōk. | baj |
27. | Father looked over at him for a bit and then headed up. P1069 | Jema ebar lale jidik innem etal. | bar |

29. | The boy resembles his father. | Eḷap an ḷadik eṇ bōdañe jemān. | bōdañ |
30. | Father took a match out of his pants pocket and lit the lamp. P140 | Jema ekwaḷọk juon mājet jān bōjọọn jedọujij eo an im tile ḷaaṃ eo. | bōjọ |
31. | Father stopped and looked at me. P825 | Jema ebōjrak im erre tok. | bōjrak |
32. | Those two were still talking and as I raised my head and looked toward the island I caught a glimpse of Father on the shore side of the wharf. P84 | Erro ej kōnono wōt ak iḷak bōk bōra im rōre āne ḷọk ilo animrokan Jema iturun ṃweo iānein wab eo. | bōk bar |
33. | When the boat made it through the pass and into the open ocean Father came up from the engine room. P525 | Ej buñlik wōt wa eo im pād i lik ak ewaḷọk tok Jema jān iṃōn injin eo. | buñlik |
34. | After going down and revving the engine, Father came up and took a seat on the roof of the engine room. P491 | Ālikin an kar to laḷ ḷọk im bar buuḷiḷọk injin eo, Jema ewanlōñ tak im jijet ioon ṃōn injin eo. | buuḷ |
35. | Father emptied the bucket and came down quickly. P614 | Jema elutōk bakōj eo ḷọk im buuḷ laḷ tak. | buuḷ |
36. | “Some,” Father answered. P244 | “Ebwe,” Jema euwaak. | bwe |
37. | I could hear Father and the Boatswain talking up on deck. P977 | Ikar roñ an Jema im Bojin eo bwebwenato ijo i lōñ. | bwebwenato |
38. | Father kicked the canoe so it would drift toward the island while the Boatswain started getting things organized on the boat. P1290 | Jema ebwijlọke āne ḷọk kōrkōr eo bwe en peāne ḷọk ak Bojin eo ekarrūkarōk ioon wa eo. | bwijbwij |
39. | “Thank you,” I said to him and hurried back to the boat, because I knew Father and the Boatswain were still waiting. P267 | “Koṃṃool,” iba ñan e im bwijọkorkor meto ḷọk ñan wa eo bwe ijeḷā ke Jema im Bojin eo erro ej kar kōttar wōt. | bwijọkorkor |
40. | When I heard the Captain say this, I thought about it and was amazed that Father was able to recognize the waves on the ocean side of Pikeej from the movement of the boat while the Captain says he needs to actually see them. P799 | Ke ikar roñ naan kein an Kapen eo, iḷōmṇak im bwilōñ bajjek ippa taunin an Jema maroñ kile ṇoin likin Pikeej jān ṃōṃakūtkūtin wa eo ak Kapen eo eba ej aikuj kar lo kōn mejān. | bwilōñ |
41. | “Okay, that’s enough of that; let’s just move forward and think about getting ourselves some drinking water,” Father said. P1212 | “Ekwe eṃōj ṇe bwe emoot ḷọk eo kain ak jen ḷōmṇake dānnin idaak,” Jema eba. | dān |
42. | I held the funnel and Father poured the contents into the tank of the engine. P590 | Idāpij banōḷ eo im Jema elutōk tok men eo kobban ñan lowaan tāāñ eo an injin eo. | dāpdep |
43. | “Keep holding him,” Father said. P1162 | “Dāpij wōt,” Jema eba. | dāpij |
44. | “I’ll jump in, too, so I can help him,” Father complemented what the Captain said. P1249 | Inaaj kelọk ippān im jipañe.,” Jema ediek ḷọk men eo Kapen eo ekar ba. | dede |
45. | Father was doing his best to persevere but it was obvious that he was growing hopeless and uneasy. P1027 | Jema ekar kate wōt ak elukkuun alikkar an dedodo im addiṃakoko. | dedo |
46. | As soon as I put the things down, Father started talking to me. P1270 | Ej ṃōj aō doori laḷ ḷọk men ko ioon wa eo ak Jema ekkōnono tok. | dedoor |
47. | I still remember when I sailed with Father and two other men on a small boat that was twenty-two feet long and six feet wide. P1 | Ij keememej ḷọk wōt ke ikar uwe ippān Jema kab ruo ṃōṃaan ilo juon booj jidikdik eo roñoul ruo ne aitokan im jiljino ne depakpakin. | depakpak |
48. | The Boatswain was a little younger than Father, who was thirty-some years old. P38 | Bojin eo edikḷọk wōt jidik jān Jema eo me eor jilñuul jiṃa an iiō. | dik |
49. | It had been a while, but I knew my thinking was wrong because when Father came out to where I was and saw the same thing, he said, “The moon is coming up.” P222 | “Ebaj to ak ijeḷā ke ebōd ḷōmṇak eo aō bwe Jema ediwōj tok im ḷak baj lo an āindeeo eba, “Eiiaḷañe.” | diwōj |
50. | “How about if we take Captain down below so he can lie down,” Father said to the Boatswain. P1046 | “Kōjro āktuwe laḷ tak Kapen ṇe ñan lowa bwe en babu,” Jema ekkōnono ḷọk ñan Bojin eo. | eakto |
51. | “Are we done unloading?” Father interjected in an attempt to stop the two of them from arguing. P703 | “Eṃōj jej eakto wōt ke?” Jema ekajjitōk im kajjioñ bōbrae aerro wōnṃaan ḷọk wōt im aoḷ. | eakto |
52. | “Are you hungry?” Father asked me as we walked down the dock. P143 | “Kwoeañden ke?” Jema ekajjitōk ippa ke kōṃro ej etal ioon wab eo ḷọk | eañden |
53. | I didn’t think Father had heard what he said because when I looked over he didn’t seem to be paying attention. P450 | Ij ḷōmṇak Jema ekar jab roñ men eo bwe iḷak lale ej jab kanooj el ḷọk | el |
54. | “I will need to visit him after I see you guys home,” Father said. P127 | “Inaaj aikuj lo ḷọk ālikin aō lo waj koṃeañ iṃweeṇ,” Jema eba. | eṃ |
55. | I had finished speaking but Father and the Boatswain looked at me and laughed. P300 | Ej ṃōj wōt aō kōnono ak erro Bojin eo rōre tok ñan ña im tōtōñ. | er |
56. | If the clan name for Tony's father is Erroja-kijeek, it means that Tony's clan name would not be Erroja-kijeek, because we inherit our clan from our mothers. | Eḷaññe jowi eo an jemān Tony ej Erroja-kijeek, ej meḷeḷen bwe jowi eo an Tony eban Erroja-kijeek, kōnke jej bōk ad jowi jān jined. | Erroja-kijeek |
57. | “Nothing,” Father replied, “How about up there?” P693 | “Ejjeḷọk,” Jema ekar uwaak, “Ak ej et ijeṇe i lōñ?” | et |
58. | “How are you, Captain?” Father asked. P1226 | “Ej et mour ḷe, Kapen?” Jema ekajjitōk. | et |
59. | “So what have you been doing on this island?” Father asked. P196 | “Ak kwōj et wōt ānin?” Jema ekajjitōk. | et |
60. | “How long have I been lying down?” the Captain didn’t ask Father specifically, but just asked. P1227 | “Ewi toon aō kar babu?” Kapen eo ejab uwaake Jema ak ebaj kajjitōk. | ewi |
61. | Father shook the Chief’s hand and said goodbye to the Old Man and a few other people who where there. P474 | Jema ebar idik pein irooj eo im iọkiọkwe ḷọk ḷōḷḷap eo kab armej ro jet ijo. | idik |
62. | “Are you guys ready up there?” Father yelled up. P680 | “Epojak ke ijeṇe i lōñ?” Jema ekar kūkūr lōñ ḷọk | ijeṇe |
63. | The two of us stayed quiet awhile as Father was working; the only sound was the monkey wrench banging on the engine as he shifted back and forth in there. P720 | Kōṃro kar bar ikoñ iuṃwin jidik iien bwe epoub Jema im ainikien wōt kein jaḷjaḷ ko ke rej tōtōñtōñ ippān injin eo ke ej niñeañ rōkeañ ijo. | ikōñ |
64. | “Well, all the pipes I have taken off so far are clogged,” Father said. P724 | “Ekwe, aolep baib kā ikar jeḷati im boṇ,” Jema eba. | im |
65. | “It’s okay,” Father quickly said. P1297 | Āinwōt juon,” Jema eṃōkaj im ba. | im |
66. | “Hello, everyone in this house,” Father said when we entered. P180 | “Iọkwe koṃ iṃwiin,” Jema eba ke kōṃro ej delọñ ḷọk | iṃwiin |
67. | “Father has a bag on his shoulder and the Boatswain is carrying the water container on his shoulder.” P1258 | “Jema eṇ ej ineek juon pāāk ak Bojin ej ineek kōb eṇ.” | inene |
68. | “It would be a shame if they were able to haul us but not all this stuff,” Father said. P1127 | “Iọkwi men kein ñe rōḷokwan ektake kōjeañ ak rejab ektaki,” Jema eba. | iọkwe |
69. | “Hi guys,” Father said. P101 | “Iọkwe eok ḷōmen,” Jema eba. | iọkwe |
70. | “Okay, just stay there, because I'm going to drag one end of the board up on deck and through the doorway while you hold the other end; that way it won’t fall on you or the engine,” Father suggested. P677 | “Ekwe, kwōn kab pād wōt ijeṇe bwe inaaj ekkotak lōñ ḷọk im iperi ḷọk ioon teek i lowaan kōjām ṇe ḷọk im kwōnaaj jibwe tu ḷokaer ilo iien eṇ ij kōtḷọki bwe ren jab wōtḷọk im ure eok kab injin ṇe,” Jema ekar kapilōk tok eō. | ipep |
71. | “Son, come up if everything is okay down there, because the boat is about to come alongside us now,” Father said. P1144 | “Nejū e, ñe ej eṃṃan wōt jabdewōt i jeṇe, ekwe wanlọñ tak ḷọk bwe wa eo e ejako eatartar ippād,” Jema ekkūr tok. | ippa- |
72. | I only woke up because Father woke me up so I could eat breakfast with everyone. P820 | Unin aō ruj Jema ekar kọruj eō bwe in ṃabuñ ippāerjel. | ippa- |
73. | The Captain was steering and Father was wiping oil and dirt from his hands. P866 | Kapen eo ekar jebwebwe ak ñe Jema ej iri ḷọk wōiḷ im tōtoon ko jān pein. | irir |
74. | Father realized that the man who owned the boat who he was going to ask for his boat was a frugal kind of guy, because he was very careful and protective of the boat. P22 | Jema ear kile ippān make ke ḷeo ej itōn kajjitōk wa eo waan ej kain armej rot eṇ epen ṃweien kōnke eḷap an tiljek im kōjparok. | itōn |
75. | Father quickly lifted the gas can up into the air. P598 | Jema ekaiur im kotak tāāñ eo ṇa i mejatoto. | iur |
76. | “Go ahead and don’t worry; I’ll stay here at the wheel,” he said to Father. P1086 | “Iwōj wōt im jab inepata bwe ña e ippān jebwe e,” euwaak ḷọk ñan Jema. | iwōj |
77. | “Let’s wait a little while,” Father said. P1110 | “Jej ja kōttar jidik,” Jema eba. | ja |
78. | “Okay, the two of us are going to wander over to him,” Father said. P205 | “Ekwe kōṃro ej ja ajādik tok ñan ippān,” Jema eba. | ja |
79. | “Mr. Boatswain, you stay here at the wheel while I go down and see what’s going on,” Father said. P1085 | “Bojin e, kwōj ja pād wōt ilo jebwe ṇe bwe ij ja itōn lale eita,” Jema eba. | ja |
80. | “There’s no sign of land ahead and it’s going to be a while before we see any,” Father said. P872 | “Jaab ān eo wōt ṇe i ṃaan ak ej ettoḷọk wōt ñan ad maroñ loe,” Jema eba. | jaab |
81. | The Boatswain must have understood what Father meant, because the smell of gas was so strong inside that we could hardly breathe. P771 | Ej aikuj kar meḷeḷe eake men eo Jema ekar jiroñ ḷọk kōnke joñan an kijoñ jāālelin nemān kiaj eo i lowa, jeitan ban kōboutuut ijo. | jāālel |
82. | John's father is one of the signers of his marriage certificate. | Jemān John ej juon iaan ri-jain ro ilo peba in ṃare eo an. | jain |
83. | I took his plate over like he had asked and then turned around and faced Father. P1331 | Ikar āte ḷọk pileij eo ñiin āinwōt an kar ba innem jaḷḷọk ñan Jema. | jāl- |
84. | As soon as the two of them stepped onto the beach three more people appeared on the path where Father and the Boatswain had come out. P1259 | Ke erro kar juur tarkijet ebaj waḷọk tok jilu armej jān ejja mejate eo wōt erro kar diwōj tok jāne. | jān |
85. | Then one day Father and the two men met together and the idea arose that Father should approach the man who owned the twenty-two foot boat and ask if he would allow them to charter it to Likiep. P20 | Innem juon raan Jema kab ḷōṃarein ruo erjel kar kwelọk ippān doon im lo juon ḷōmṇak bwe Jema en kepaak ḷeo waan booj in im roñoul ruo ne aitokan im kajjitōk ippān emaroñ ke kōtḷọk wa eo waan bwe erjel en jata kake ñan Likiep. | jata |

87. | Father started passing up lumber. P683 | Jema ejino jejeb lōñ ḷọk aḷaḷ. | jebjeb |
88. | “Okay, here comes another one,” Father said. P710 | “Ekwe bar jino jebjeb waj,” Jema ekkōnono lōñ ḷọk | jebjeb |
89. | As soon as Father got a glimpse of me he made a gesture with his hand for me to come toward him. P581 | Jema elo miroū im jeeaḷe ḷọk eō ñan ippān. | jeeaaḷ |
90. | The father of that boy is a sailor. | Jemān ḷadik eṇ ejeeḷa. | jeeḷa |
91. | “Maybe he was talking in his sleep,” Father said. P1091 | “Bōlen ear ejja bajjek,” Jema eba. | jeja |
92. | I got onto the truck and started passing lumber to Father on the pier so he could pass it to the two guys on the boat. P354 | Iuwe ḷọk ioon tūrak eo im jino jebjeb ḷọk aḷaḷ ñan Jema ioon wab eo bwe en jejaak ḷọk ñan ḷōṃaro ruo. | jejaak |

94. | “We were so far out westward that it’s taken us one week of sailing east to get here,” Father said. P1200 | “Joñan adeañ kar lo to, enañin juon wiikin adeañ jeek reeaar,” Jema eba. | jeje |
95. | “Now that seems to be more like it,” Father said. P546 | “Ekwe ebajjeet ke ejijjet ḷọk jidik,” Jema eba. | jejjet |

97. | You know how to respect your father. | Kwōjeḷā jemā. | jemā |
98. | My real father | Lukkuun jema. | jema- |

100. | “Now,” Father said. P1100 | “Kiiō,” Jema eba. | jema- |
101. | “Captain, I don’t think I can take the pipes apart as you suggest because this lamp isn’t giving off enough light,” Father said. P655 | “Kapen e, ij jab ḷōmṇak imaroñ jeḷati baib kā āinwōt aṃ ba kōnke ejemram ḷaaṃ e,” Jema ekar ba. | jemram |
102. | The three of us stayed there for a while, and then I looked toward the shore and saw Father carrying the container of water away from the island. P1282 | Kōmjel bar pād jidik im iḷak rōre āne ḷọk, ilo Jema ej jepak meto tak nien dān eo. | jepak |
103. | It was disastrous for them when their father died | Ekar juon jerata ḷapḷap ke ej mej jemāer jān er. | jerata |
104. | “Let’s turn the boat so we can sail into the wind,” I heard Father yell over to the Boatswain. P1098 | “Jero kōrọọl wa in bwe jen jino jeje tak,” iroñ an Jema jiroñ ḷọk Bojin eo. | jero |
105. | And then one morning, Father came up on deck and started talking to the Boatswain. P1188 | Ḷak baj juon jibbōñ, Jema ewanlōñ tak ñan ioon teek im kōnono ḷọk ñan Bojin eo. | jibboñ |
106. | He kept trying and then made it, and he slowly crawled up onto the deck where Father and the Boatswain were. P1225 | Ekar kattūkat bajjek ijo im ḷak tōprak, ejidik wōt an tōbal lōñ ḷọk ñan ioon teek im jibadek ḷọk ijo ippān Jema kab Bojin eo. | jidik |
107. | “Does either of you know when the wind started to die down?” the Captain asked Father and the Boatswain. P831 | “Koṃro jeḷā ekar jino dikḷọk kōto in ñāāt?” Kapen eo ekar kajjitōk ippān Jema im Bojin eo. | jijino |
108. | This is tract owned by my father. | Wāto eo jikin jemā in. | jiki- |
109. | The Captain was going to answer him but then Father arrived and started talking with the old man. P100 | Kapen eo ekar itan uwaake ak ejikrōk Jema im kōnono ippān ḷōḷḷap eo. | jikrōk |
110. | But Father didn’t have to do anything because when we arrived at his side he was already lying down and fast asleep. P1089 | Ejej men eṇ Jema ekar kōṃṃane ñane bwe kōṃro ḷak jikrōk ḷọk ijo ippān ej babu im mājur. | jikrōk |
111. | We were about to go but Father still had his mind on questioning the old man, and he said, “Sir, what are the navigational signs before we see Likiep?” P206 | Kōṃro ej tōn ṃōṃakūt wōt ak ebar jiktok juon an kajjitōk ippān ḷōḷḷap eo, innem ebar ba, Ḷe kar ta jet iaan kōkḷaḷ ko ṃokta jān ad lo Likiep?” | jiktok |
112. | “About 60 miles,” Father said. P1207 | “Tarrin jiljinoññoul ṃaiḷ,” [Jema] eba. | jiljinoñoul |
113. | Father slowed a bit first and then pushed the engine’s reverse lever back. P482 | Jema ejiḷoik ḷọk jidik ṃōṃkaj im iuun lik ḷọk jurōn kein pāāk eo ilo injin eo. | jiḷo |
114. | “Hello,” Father and the Boatswain both said to the Captain as he came onto the boat. P274 | “Iọkwe,” Jema im Bojin erro jiṃor ba ḷọk ñan Kapen eo ke ej to tok ioon wa eo. | jiṃor |

118. | That boy is one who is always playing jipapa with his father. | Ḷadik eṇ ej juon eṇ ri-jippapa bwe aolep iien ej jipapa ippān jemān. | jippapa |
119. | The boy is playing jippapa with his father. | Ḷadik eo ejippapa ippān jemān. | jippapa |
120. | Although what the Captain said sounded good, I was more inclined to believe Father because the Captain had already made so many mistakes on this trip and so many bad things were happening as a result. P875 | Meñe eṃṃanḷọk aō roñ peḷḷọkin naan ko an Kapen eo, āinwōt eitok wōt bwe in kar tōmak naan ko an Jema kōnke elōñ de alen an kar Kapen eo jirillọk. | jirilọk |

122. | “Son, hang on; the waves are getting bigger,” Father yelled to me. P498 | “Nejū e, kakkōt jirok bwe ejino eḷḷap ṇo,” Jema ejiroñ tok eō. | jirok |
123. | “Okay, it’s finished,” Father called to the Boatswain and me. P326 | “Ekwe etōprak,” Jema ejiroñ tok kōṃro Bojin eo. | jiroñ |
124. | He rarely visits his father | Ejọkkutkuti jemān. | jọkkutkut |
125. | Father and the two men saw an opportunity, so they went through the scrap and collected wood and metal for themselves. P18 | Jema kab ḷōṃarein ruo rōkar lo bwe juon eo iien eṃṃan innem raar jọkpej im aini jet aerjel aḷaḷ kab tiin. | jọkpej |
126. | “Where does our chief live?” Father asked quickly. P203 | “Irooj eṇ ad ej jokwe ia?” Jema eṃōkaj im kajjitōk. | jokwe |
127. | When Father realized it he stopped what he was doing and looked over at him. P454 | Jema ej jeḷā wōt men in ak ejoḷọk men eo ekar kōṃṃane im rōre lọk ñan e. | joḷọk |
128. | Forgive me, Father, for I have sinned. | Joḷọk aō bōd, Jema, bwe iar jerawiwi. | joḷọk bōd |

131. | My father offered me a boat as an inheritance. | Jema ear kajolōt eō kōn juon wa. | jolōt |
132. | “It seems to me that they think they are protecting us, but what they don’t know is that in doing so they are destroying the way of life we inherited from our ancestors," Father said. P401 | “Bwe iba rej ḷōmṇak rej kōjparok kōj jān jorrāān, ak rejaje ke ilo aer kōṃṃane men in rej kọkkure wāween mour eo ad jaar jolōte jān ro jiṃṃaad,” Jema eba. | jolōt |
133. | “But I’m sure I felt the Pikeej island ocean side waves at dawn, just a little while before it shut off,” Father said. P792 | “Ak āinwōt iar eñjake ṇoin likin Pikeej ke ej joraantak, ṃoktaḷọk jidik jān an kun,” Jema eba. | joraantak |
134. | “Nothing’s the matter,” Father said. P587 | “Ejjeḷọk jorrāān,” Jema eba. | jorrāān |
135. | That boy, like his father, doesn't scare easily. | Ri-jauwōtata ḷadik eṇ āinwot jemān. | jọuwōta |
136. | That boy is more fearless than his father. | Ejọuwatata ḷọk ḷadik eṇ jān jemān. | jọuwōta |
137. | Since the Captain didn’t say anything, Father went on. P734 | Ḷak ke ejjeḷọk men eṇ Kapen eo eba, Jema ejujen wōnṃaan ḷọk wōt. | jujen |
138. | As soon as they were done tying the boat to the pier Father jumped up onto the pier and started saying hello to everyone. P1345 | Ej ṃōj aerro kōbooj wa eo ippān wab eo ak Jema ekālōñḷọk ñan ioon wab eo im iọkiọkwe armej rowōj. | kā- |
139. | “Mr. Boatswain, that wasn’t a gas can you gave me,” Father said as he shined a light on the pipe he had removed. P625 | “Bojin e, kwōjeḷā ke ej jab kāānin kiaj men eo kwaar letok,” Jema eba ke ej rome baib eo ekar jeḷate. | kāān |
140. | “That was astounding,” Father said with amazement. P1156 | “Ekabwilōñlōñ wōt in wāween,” Jema ebaj bwilōñ im ba. | kabwilōñlōñ |
141. | When the two of them were done talking, Father speeded up the engine, making the boat move rapidly away from the side of the pier and the shoreline, and out into the lagoon. P489 | Ej jeṃḷọk wōt aerro kōnono tok ak Jema ebar pikūr ḷọk jidik injin eo im rōkakōt wa eo jān turin wab eo im arin ān eo. | kaiur |

143. | “Try climbing up on top of the mast, Mr. Boatswain, and if you can see anything up ahead,” Father told him. P1190 | “Kajjioñ ṃōk wanlōñ ḷe, Bojin, im lale ta kwōlo i ṃaan,” Jema ekar ba ñane | kajjioñ |
144. | This is what Father was thinking about when he went to ask to use the boat. P23 | Āindein an Jema ḷōmṇak ke ej etal in kajjitōk wa eo. | kajjitōk |
145. | “What’s the name of this boat, Father?” I asked him. P328 | “Etan wa in ḷe, Jema?" ikkajitōk ippān. | kajjitōk |
146. | The father disinherited his son from his land. | Jemān ear kaliaik ḷadik eo nejin. | kalia |
147. | No one said anything for a few minutes until Father looked at the clock hanging in the engine room and said, “But it is morning. P657 | Ejej eṇ ekar bar kōnono iuṃwin jet minit, innem Jema ekalimjek ḷọk awa eo i kiin ṃōn injin eo tu lōñ im ba, “Bwe ke eraan. | kallimjek |
148. | When the boat rolled again, I flew over and hung onto Father. P690 | Ke ej lā wa eo ikālọk im jirok ippān Jema. | kālọk |
149. | “Make sure you don’t get too close to the players because some of them are drunk and they could kick you,” Father advised me P152 | Lale kwaar kanooj kepaake rukkure raṇe bwe jet raṇe rōkadek im rōmaroñ juur eok,” Jema ekapilōk tok eō. | kapilōk |
150. | “Yes,” Father said. “I saw the Boatswain patching up some little tears the other day. But …” P422 | “Iññā,” Jema eba, “Ikar lo wōt an Bojin karpeni potak jiddik ko ie raan eo ḷọk. Ak …” | karpen |
151. | “Yes, I still remember what our chief taught us when we studied with him,” Father said to the old man. P123 | “Aaet ij ememej wōt ekkatak ko an irooj eo kōjro kar bōk arro jeḷā ippān,” Jema eba ñan ḷōḷḷap eo. | katak |
152. | “Hold on a minute,” Father said. P1102 | “Kōttar jidik,” Jema ekar ba. | kattar |
153. | “Be careful; things are getting pretty dangerous,” Father said. P749 | “Kōṃṃanṃōn wōt bwe ekauwōtataḷọk,” Jema eba. | kauwōtata |
154. | “It’s been a month since we set sail from Kwajalein to Likiep but we are drifting at sea and we are almost out of drinking water,” the Boatswain reminded Father. P1018 | “Kiiō emotḷọk de juon allōñ jān ke jeañ ar jerak jān Kwajleen ñan Likiep ak eñiin jej eppepe wōt i lọmeto im mōttan wōt jidik emaat limed dān,” Bojin eo ekakeememej ḷọk Jema. | keememej |
155. | The Captain didn’t answer the Boatswain and instead started talking to Father. P869 | Kapen eo ekar jab kijer im uwaake Bojin eo ak ekar kōnono ḷọk ṃōṃkaj ñan Jema. | kijer |
156. | “Do you guys know if there’s any wire on the boat” Father said, “the kind that’s really thick?” P731 | “Koṃro jeḷā eor ke wea i wa in?” Jema eba, “Kain rot eṇ ekijñeñe. | kijñeñe |
157. | “He’s asleep,” Father said. P1072 | “Ekiki,” Jema eba. | kiki |
158. | “Do you recognize it?” Father asked him. P1196 | “Kwōkile ke?” Jema ekajjitōk ḷọk | kile |
159. | Honor thy father and thy mother, that thy days may be long upon the land that the Lord thy God giveth thee. S5 | Kwōn kipliie ñan jeṃaṃ im jinōṃ, bwe en to raan ko aṃ ioon āneo Jeova aṃ Anij ej lewōj ñan eok. | kipliie |
160. | “Maybe it’s better if you don’t smoke here,” Father said. P770 | “Bōlen eṃṃan ñe kwōjab kōbaatat ijin,” Jema eba. | kōbaatat |
161. | The Boatswain must have understood what Father meant, because the smell of gas was so strong inside that we could hardly breathe. P771 | Ej aikuj kar meḷeḷe eake men eo Jema ekar jiroñ ḷọk kōnke joñan an kijoñ jāālelin nemān kiaj eo i lowa, jeitan ban kōboutuut ijo. | kōboutut |

163. | Father sat down at the door and I sat down next to him. P242 | Jema ejijet ḷọk ilo kōjām eo im ña ibaj jijet ḷọk iturin. | kōjām |
164. | The Boatswain was telling Father a story about how bad things were for him during the war between the United States and Japan. P978 | Bojin eo ej bwebwenato ñan Jema kōn an kar nana kōjeien ilo paata eo an kar America im Japan. | kōjea- |
165. | The chief stared at Father and said, “You guys shouldn’t be careless, because this is the month of the Likabwiro storms. P249 | Irooj eo ekalimjek Jema im ba, “Koṃwin jab kōjelbabō bwe allōñ eo an Likabwiro in. | kōjelbabō |
166. | “And let him know there is land up ahead,” Father said. P1215 | “Kab jujen kōjjeḷāiki ke ān eo e i ṃaan,” Jema ebaj ba. | kōjjeḷā |
167. | “Well, we are out of drinking water,” Father informed him. P1240 | “Ekwe emaat limed dān,” Jema ekōjjeḷāiki. | kōjjeḷā |
168. | “Yes, and the reason being that we have been going against the wind and the waves all this time,” Father replied. P794 | “Enaaj kōjkan ke joñan ettōr tak eo adeañ ippān kōto im ṇo ko eo,” Jema euwaak. | kōjka- |
169. | “Well I’m not the captain of the boat, so I just do what our Captain says,” Father answered. P252 | “Enaaj kōjkan ke ej jab kapenin wa eṇ ña innem ij erre lọk wōt ñan ta eo Kapen eṇ ameañ ej ba,” Jema euwaak. | kōjka- |
170. | “Thank you both,” Father said, “but we just had supper.” P183 | “Koṃro eṃṃool,” Jema eba, “ak ej kab ṃōj amro kōjota.” | kōjota |
171. | “Take good care of it,” Father said. P1304 | “Kōjparoke,” Jema eba. | kōjparok |
172. | Despite his great success and fame he did not fail to keep in touch with his father. | Jekdọọn ñe eḷe ak ear jab jokwōd an kōkeini (ekkeini) (jemān). | kōkeini |
173. | We were about to go but Father still had his mind on questioning the old man, and he said, “Sir, what are the navigational signs before we see Likiep?” P206 | Kōṃro ej tōn ṃōṃakūt wōt ak ebar jiktok juon an kajjitōk ippān ḷōḷḷap eo, innem ebar ba, Ḷe kar ta jet iaan kōkḷaḷ ko ṃokta jān ad lo Likiep?” | kōkḷaḷ |
174. | “Don’t forget to warn the Captain about the Old Man’s advice,” I said to Father once the Boatswain had left. P413 | “Lale kwōmeḷọkḷọk in kakkōle Kapen eṇ kōn naanin rōjañ eo an ḷōḷḷap eo,” irre lọk im ba ñan Jema ke ej moot ḷọk Bojin eo. | kōkōl |
175. | “Don’t jinx us or we will have bad luck,” Father said. P254 | “Kwōn jab bar ekkọọl bwe jenaaj jerata,” Jema eba. | kokọọl |
176. | “Son, hang on; the waves are getting bigger,” Father yelled to me. P498 | “Nejū e, kakkōt jirok bwe ejino eḷḷap ṇo,” Jema ejiroñ tok eō. | kōkōt |
177. | But I looked over and saw that Father and the Boatswain didn’t appear to be happy. P847 | Ak iḷak rōre lọk ilo bwe Jema im Bojin eo erro kar jab kilen ṃōṃōṇōṇō | kōl |
178. | I heard what Father and the Captain were saying and I thought about it. P874 | Iroñ naan kein an Jema im Kapen eo im kar kōlmānḷọkjeṇ eaki | kōḷmānḷọkjeṇ |
179. | Father fixed things up there while the Boatswain went back up to tend to the wheel. P1059 | Jema ekōṃanṃan kōjeien ṇa ijo ak Bojin eo ewanlōñ ḷọk ippān jebwe eo. | kōṃanṃan |
180. | “It spilled from the engine when it was running and then flowed into and combined with the bilge water.” Father explained. P718 | “Ekar ippilpil jān injin ṇe ke ear jọ im tọọr waj ñan dān ṇe i lowa,” Jema ekōmḷeḷeik eō. | kōmmeḷeḷe |
181. | “Thanks, but no,” Father answered for the two of us. P188 | “Koṃṃool, ak kōṃro ej jab,” euwaak Jema ñan kōṃro. | kōṃro |
182. | “Where are we now, Father?” I asked as we kept going. P172 | “Ia in kōjro pād ie kiin Jema?” ikar kajjitōk ke kōṃro ej etal ijo ḷọk | kōṃro |
183. | The guys started handing us the boards and Father and I put them away. P746 | Ḷōṃaro rōjino leletok im kōṃro Jema jino bar kọkkọṇkọṇ. | koṇ |
184. | When I went back down I saw Father folding the sleeping mats and putting them away. P823 | Ke ikar rọọl laḷ ḷọk ibar ioon Jema ej limi jaki ko im kọkoni. | koṇ |
185. | “Son, go back to the same place you were before if you want,” Father said. P743 | “Nejū, kwōnaaj bar pād ijo kar jikūṃ ṃokta, ñe kwōkōṇaan,” Jema eba. | kōṇaan |
186. | He's light skinned because his father is a white American. | Eaiṇokko kōnke nejin ri-pālle. | kōnke |
187. | Father spoke after a bit. P721 | Ej baj meḷan ḷọk ak Jema ekkōnono. | kōnono |
188. | There’s not enough to make coffee,” Father said. P986 | Edik kiiō ñan kōmat kọpe,” Jema ear ba. | kọpe |
189. | The trade winds were blowing favorably and the Captain and Father looked up at the clouds and predicted it would be like that for the rest of the day. P969 | Kōto eo ekọto im Kapen eo kab Jema rōḷak kōbbaal tok rōba ke enaaj kar āindeeo an ṃōṃan ñan boñ. | kọto |
190. | “The engine stopped,” Father replied. P619 | “Ekun,” Jema euwaak. | kukun |
191. | “Son, come,” Father called me. P160 | “Nejū e, itok,” Jema ekkūr tok. | kūkūr |
192. | “Hello,” Father called over to the Chief. P455 | “Iọkwe eok,” Jema ekkūr ḷọk ñan irooj eo. | kūkūr |
193. | “Hello,” Father called over to the Old Man as he approached the boat. P427 | “Iọkwe eok,” Jema ekkūr ḷọk ñan e ke ej epaake tok wa eo. | kūkūr |
194. | I was just thinking my son and I would drop by and see you this evening,” Father said to him. P107 | Iar ḷōmṇak wōt bwe kōṃro ḷe nejū en kar iukkure waj jọteen in,” Jema eba ñane | kukure |
195. | “Like I said, my son and I are going to drop by your house this evening,” I heard Father say. P117 | Āinwōt aō kar ba ke kōṃro ḷe nejū naaj iukkure waj ñan ṃween iṃōṃ jọteen in ḷọk,” iroñ an Jema ba. | kukure |
196. | After Father turned off the engine, he and the Boatswain went ashore to look for the Captain so they could start loading up the boat. P340 | Ṃōjin an Jema kune injin eo, erro Bojin eo wōnāne ḷọk im pukōt Kapen eo bwe ren jino ektak im kanne wa eo. | kune |

199. | Since the Captain didn’t say anything, I went topside with Father. P353 | Ḷak ke ejjeḷọk men eṇ Kapen eo eba, iwanlōñ ḷọk ippān Jema. | ḷak |
200. | “Roi-Namur is to the south, but it will be a while before we sight land,” Father said. P925 | “Ruōt ṇe irōk, ak ettoḷọk ñan ad maroñ ḷannoiki,” Jema eba. | ḷanno |
201. | Father was still in the middle of talking when the Captain interrupted him, “We will use the engine first and then when the wind picks up we will use the sail,” the Captain said. P423 | Ejab jeṃḷọk an Jema kōnono bwe Kapen eo ekkōnono, “Jenaaj leinjin tak ḷọk im ñe eṃṃan kōto, jelewūjḷā,” Kapen eo eba. | le |

204. | “My son and I already have our things on board,” Father said. P381 | “Ededeḷọk tok ṃweiemro ḷe nejū,” Jema eba. | ḷe |
205. | “What’s the name of this boat, Father?” I asked him. P328 | “Etan wa in ḷe, Jema?" ikkajitōk ippān. | ḷe |
206. | The guys started handing us the boards and Father and I put them away. P746 | Ḷōṃaro rōjino leletok im kōṃro Jema jino bar kọkkọṇkọṇ. | le- |

208. | He's taking his father to Rita. | Ej leakḷọk jemān ñan Rita. | leak- |
209. | When we approached the veranda of the house, Father quickly greeted the chief who was sitting with his wife. P228 | Ke kōṃro ej jikrōk ḷọk ilo etōñaakin ṃweo, Jema eṃōkaj im iọkiọkwe ḷọk irooj eo ej jijet ippān lejḷā eo. | lejḷā |
210. | The roll of the boat back and forth on the waves started to intensify, and the water inside the boat splashed and sprayed me and Father until we were soaking wet, but the liquid we were pouring from the can never once spilled over. P595 | Eḷak bar ḷapḷọk an lelāle im ṃōt wa eo, dān eo lowa ejjādbūtbūt im kōṃro Jema ṇok ak ejab lilutōktōk dān eo kōṃro ej teiñi ḷọk ñan lowaan tāāñ eo. | lelāle |

214. | He wept loudly when he heard his father had died. | Eḷap an kar liṃō ke ej roñ ke emej jemān. | liṃō |
215. | The Boatswain and Father were drinking coffee and shooting the breeze at the back the boat. P259 | Bojin eo im Jema erro ej daak kọpe im kōmāltato iḷọkwan wa eo. | ḷokwa- |
216. | “Sir, thank you for letting me use your boat and for the provisions,” Father called over to the shore from behind the canoe. P1291 | Ḷōḷḷap eṇ e, koṃṃool kōn wa ṇe waaṃ kab teaak kā,” Jema ekkūr āne ḷọk i ḷọkwan kōrkōr eo. | ḷokwa- |

220. | “Okay, that’s enough of that; let’s just move forward and think about getting ourselves some drinking water,” Father said. P1212 | “Ekwe eṃōj ṇe bwe emoot ḷọk eo kain ak jen ḷōmṇake dānnin idaak,” Jema eba. | ḷōmṇak |
221. | “You can start passing things down to us,” the Captain said and before the Captain said it Father had started passing lumber to him. P356 | “Jino jebjeb tok,” eruṃwij an wōtlọk naan eo jān lāñwiin Kapen eo ke Jema ej jino leleḷọk aḷaḷ ñan e. | lọñi |

224. | Father took over the tiller, and the Boatswain, using a climbing method in which only the feet and hands touch the tree, climbed up the base of the mast. P1191 | Jema ewelọk ilo jila eo ak Bojin eḷọrronpā lōñ ḷọk idāpin kaju eo lōñ ḷọk | ḷọrronpā |

226. | “That’s Epatōn up ahead,” Father replied. P1230 | “Epatōn ṇe i ṃaan,” Jema euwaak. | ṃaan |
227. | “The engine is warm enough now,” Father said after the engine had been running for a few minutes. P335 | “Ebwe ṇe an injin ṇe kōmmāāṇāṇ,” Jema eba ḷọkin jet minitin an injin eo jọ. | māāṇāṇ |
228. | When everything was ready to go the Captain went to the back and took the wheel and waited for the Boatswain and Father to finish their cigarettes so they could raise the sail. P837 | Ej ṃōj im pojak wōt men otemjej ak Kapen eo etal lik tak im jibwe jebwe eo im kōttar an Bojin eo im Jema kōmaatiḷọk jikka ko kijeerro ṃōṃkaj jān aerro jerake wūjḷā eo. | maat |

232. | “Father, I’m tired; I am going to get some sleep,” I said. P554 | “Jema e, imejki, ij ja itōn mājur,” iba. | mājur |
233. | I don’t know when Father and the Boatswain finished talking because I fell asleep listening to their stories. P980 | Iñak ñāāt wōt eo erro kar bōjrak bwe etal im imājur jān aerro bwebwenato. | mājur |
234. | “This guy sure is brave,” Father said, chuckling as the two of them carried him down with both hands. P1048 | “Māllen eañ in ebuñut ḷakijoñjoñ in,” Jema eba im ettōñ dikdik ke erro kar pārorāiki laḷ ḷọk | māl |
235. | “If you didn’t wander around so much and play until it gets dark, you would always know where your Father is,” the Captain said to me. P50 | “Eḷaññe kokadikḷọk aṃ ṃōṃōkadkad im jab kōmarōk wōt kukure, kwōnaaj jeḷā ia eo Jeṃaṃ epād ie aolep iien,” Kapen eo eba tok. | marok |

237. | “It’s not that cluttered now,” Father said. P705 | “Ejako emeḷak,” Jema eba. | meḷak |
238. | “That’ll do, because there’s enough space down here now,” Father said as he started to take apart the pipes. P713 | “Ebwe ṇe bwe emeḷak ije kiiō,” Jema eba im jino jaḷjaḷ baib. | meḷak |
239. | “Have you forgotten about the engine?” Father said. P541 | “Ak kwōmeḷọkḷọk injin e ke?” Jema eba. | meḷọkḷọk |
240. | “Son, slow down; the water is almost gone,” Father said when he saw how fast I was breathing. P675 | “Nejū e, kadikdik bwe ej naaj maat wōt,” Jema eba ke ej lo aō menonoin kijdik. | menono |
241. | “Guys, it’s raining so hard and the weather is so bad that it seems like it’s nighttime even though it’s 10 o’clock in the morning,” Father said. P778 | Ḷōmare, joñan an mejel wōt kein im nana lañ, eñin āinwōt eboñ, meñe joñoul awa jibboñ kiiō” Jema ekar ba. | mijel |
242. | “The Old Man is coming our way,” Father said as soon as he caught a glimpse him. P425 | Ḷōḷḷap eo ṇe meto tak,” Jema elo miroin im ba. | miro |
243. | “Well, I don’t know how many times we have said we should change our course and go east, because the island is over that way, but it’s as if we are talking into thin air,” Father replied. P1019 | “Eṃōj jenāj ita ke jeṃōkin añōtñōt bwe en oktak kooj in ad im jen bōk ṇa i reaar bwe ān eo epād ie, ak āinwōt ñe jej kōnono ñan mejatoto,” Jema eukōt ḷọk | ṃōk |
244. | “The first thing we are going to do is tell them to put our name on the list so we can ride on the fastest field trip ship to our island,” Father said. P1333 | “Men eo ṃoktata, kōjro naaj wōnāne ḷọk im ba ke ren je etarro bwe kōjro en uwe ilo waan raun eo eṃōkajtata ñan aelōñ eo arro,” Jema ekar ba. | ṃōkaj |
245. | When I got there the Boatswain was holding and controlling him, and Father was trying to cool him down with a cool cloth on his forehead. P1161 | Iḷak baj tōpar ḷọk ijo ilo an Bojin eo dāpiji ak Jema ej kaṃḷoiki bōran. | ṃōḷo |
246. | When I heard the Captain say this, I thought about it and was amused that Father was able to recognize the waves on the ocean side of Pikeej from the movement of the boat while the Captain says he needs to actually see them. P799 | Ke ikar roñ naan kein an Kapen eo, iḷōmṇak im bwilōñ bajjek ippa taunin an Jema maroñ kile ṇoin likin Pikeej jān ṃōṃakūtkūtin wa eo ak Kapen eo eba ej aikuj kar lo kōn mejān. | ṃōṃakūt |

251. | “You're right,” Father said. P235 | “Kwōj ṃool,” Jema eba. | ṃool |
252. | “He went to get his clothes,” Father replied. P417 | “Emoot ḷọk in bōk tok nuknuk ko an,” Jema euwaake. | moot |
253. | Father went down into the engine room and started the engine since it was twenty-five minutes before 6 o’clock. P446 | Jema eto laḷ ḷọk im kōjọ injin eo ke ṃōttan kar joñoul ḷalem minit ñan jiljino awa. | ṃōtta- |

265. | “It’s true you haven’t lost your expertise,” Father praised him. P209 | “Mool ke ej jañin jako jeḷā ko aṃ,” Jema enebare. | nebar |
266. | “Father, you two leave your cups because I’m going to wash them,” I called to him and the Boatswain. P293 | “Jema, koṃro door kab kaṇe ñiimiro bwe inaaj karreoiki,” ijiroñ ḷọk erro Bojin eo. | ñii- |

303. | When they realized they wouldn’t accomplish anything with their talk, Father and the Boatswain didn’t say another word and instead just stayed where they were and waited for the Captain to tell them what to do. P905 | Kōnke erro kile ke ejej men eṇ erro naaj tokwōje ñe erro kōnono ṃaan ḷọk wōt, Jema im Bojin eo erro jab bar ba juon naan ak erro pād wōt im kōttar ta eo ebar ba erro en kōṃṃane. | tokwōj |

315. | “That sounds good,” Father replied in agreement. P1121 | “Eṃṃan,” Jema euwaake. | uwaak |
316. | The boat went toward the island through the small channel to the south and when it entered the lagoon, Father and the other two men the sail and threw out the anchor. P1250 | Wa eo ewōnāne ḷọk i lowaan todik eo i turōkin ān eo im ḷak ṃwelọk i ar, Jema im ḷōṃaro rōpone wūjḷā eo im joḷọk añkō eo. | wāānāne |
