2. | When I got back up to the deck I heard the Captain planning out steering duties for the three of them for the night. P536 | Ke ij tōprak ḷọk ioon teek iroñ an Kapen eo kōppeḷaak ikijjien awaan jebwebwe ko aerjeel Jema im Bojin. | aer |
3. | The song you just heard was a song traditionally sung by ancient Marshall Islander men while steering a canoe on a sailing expedition. | Alin ṃur men eo ej kab jeṃḷọkḷọk. | alin ṃur |
4. | I heard a noise and looked over to where I thought it had come from. P1039 | Iroñ ainikien eo im ḷak lukkuun alluwaḷọke ḷọk ijo ej itok jāne. | alluwaḷọk |
5. | I heard him mumbling but I didn't hear what he said. | Ij roñ wōt an alñūrñūr ak ijjab roñ naan ko ej ba. | alñūrñūr |
6. | “I heard the chief is on the island now?” P124 | Āinwōt ij roñ ke irooj eo ṇe i ānin?” | ānin |

10. | Before, it was difficult for a song to be well known, because there were few people who heard it. S26 | Ṃokta ear kanooj pen an juon al buñbuñ kōn an iiet armej eṇ ej roñ. | buñbuñ |
11. | It was the first time I heard the sound of whistling from him close to the steering wheel just before the tragedy struck that evening. P1034 | Ij kab baj naaj kar roñ ainikien ke ej ajwewe ijo ippān jebwe eo ṃōṃkaj wōt jidik jān an kar waḷọk bwijerro eo jọteen eo. | bwijerro |
12. | 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 |

15. | 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 |
16. | They began to get enthused when they heard his voice. | Rej kab tan ellowetak ke rej roñ ainikien. | ellowetak |

26. | “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 |
27. | As for me, I wouldn’t even have known the bird was there if I hadn’t heard its wings flapping as it slowly alighted on the Captain’s shoulder. P1037 | Ñe baj ña eo, iñak ke eor men eo eḷaññe ikar jab roñ ainikien pein an bao eo pikpik ke ej jokadikdik tok im jok ioon aeran Kapen eo. | jok |
28. | They mobilized when they heard of the boat's capture. | Raar joorkatkat ke rej roñ kōn an po wa eo. | joorkatkat |
29. | “I heard yelling and felt the boat shaking and I just woke up,” I said. P583 | “Iroñ ainikien lelaṃōjṃōj koba ippān an kajkaj wa in im ijujen ruj,” iba. | kajkaj |

31. | When I got back up to the deck I heard the Captain planning out steering duties for the three of them for the night. P536 | Ke ij tōprak ḷọk ioon teek iroñ an Kapen eo kōppeḷaak ikijjien awaan jebwebwe ko aerjeel Jema im Bojin. | kijjie- |
32. | “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. | kōj |
33. | While I was cleaning the place where they had eaten, I heard the noise of someone running on the dock. P306 | Ke ij karreoiki ijo erjel kar ṃōñā ie, iroñ ainikien kọkorkor ioon wab eo. | kọkorkor |
34. | 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 |
35. | “Open the hatch and get some anchor line; we can use that to tie up the boards,” I heard the Captain yell over to the Boatswain. P674 | “Kōpeḷḷọke aj ṇe i ṃaan im kwaḷọki tok emjak ko bwe kein arro naaj loklok,” iroñ an Kapen eo jiroñ ḷọk Bojin eo. | kowaḷọk |
36. | “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 |
37. | He was shocked when he heard that his son died. | Ear kūṃṃūḷọk ke ej roñ ke emej ḷeo nājin. | kūṃṃūḷọk |
38. | When I heard this I picked up the pace so I could finish bailing and help Father pass up the lumber. P673 | Iroñ men in im kūrōneḷọk jidik aō ānen bwe in kab jipañ Jema jejaak lōñ ḷọk aḷaḷ. | kūrōn |
39. | I was startled awake when the sleeping mats started to shake and I heard the guys yelling. P565 | Iilbōk im ruj ke ikar kajkaj ioon jaki ko im ke ij roñ ainikien an ḷōṃaro lelaṃōjmōj. | laṃōj |
40. | While I was asleep, I heard the sound of song and laughter. | Iar kiki im roñ ainikien al im leea. | leea |
41. | It was somewhat hard to tell how many people were in the house, but it was obvious that one was an old woman because I heard the old man say, “Honey, you should go make some food for the Engineer and his son.” P182 | Ejaad pen kile jete armej i lowaan ṃweo ak ealikkar ke juon eo leḷḷap ie kōnke iroñ ainikien an ḷōḷḷap eo ba, “Limen e, kwōn itōn kōṃṃan ḷọk kijen Injinia e im ḷadik e nejin.” | Limen |
42. | He wept loudly when he heard his father had died. | Eḷap an kar liṃō ke ej roñ ke emej jemān. | liṃō |
43. | I was shocked when I heard that he died. | Ear ḷọkjenaō ke ij roñ ke emej. | ḷọkjenaa- |
44. | I was still on the boat feeling nervous when I heard the rattling of gravel on the dock. P55 | Ij ja lōḷñoñ bajjek wōt ioon wa eo ak iroñ ḷōḷāārār ioon wab eo. | ḷōḷāārār |
45. | When I heard that I started to think about Likiep. P552 | Iroñ ijin im jino ḷōmṇake tok Likiep. | ḷōmṇak |
46. | I heard people talking about it. | Iar roñ ilueaḷ. | lueaḷ |
47. | The last word I heard before I fell asleep was the chief saying Father should drink some coffee. P256 | Naan eo āliktata ikar roñ ṃokta jān aō ṃōdān ḷọk ej ke irooj eo ekar ba Jema en idaak kọpe. | ṃadenḷọk |
48. | You couldn’t tell by the Captain’s face whether he had heard this or not. P849 | Eḷaññe Kapen eo ekar roñ men in ekwe turin mejān ekar jab kwaḷọk. | māj |
49. | I heard him talking to himself. P975 | Ikar roñ an kōnono ippān make. | make |
50. | Now all songs from all islands are heard on the air, and people can choose those they like—those that are good and those that are not. S26 | Kiiō aolep al jān aolep aelōñ rej jañ ilo mejatoto im armej remaroñ in kālet ko rōkōṇaan, ko rōṃṃan, ak ko renana. | mejatoto |
51. | But before I fell asleep I heard the Boatswain tell the Captain he could no longer see the lights. P559 | Bōtaab ṃōṃkaj jān aō kar ṃōdānḷọk, ikar roñ an Bojin eo ba ḷọk ñan Kapen eo ke ej jab lo meram eo. | ṃōdānḷọk |
52. | 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 |
53. | I felt a little better when I heard this. P846 | Ekar ṃoṃanḷọk jidik aō mour ke ij roñ men in. | ṃōṃan |
54. | When I heard footsteps I thought you were calling my name. | Ke ij roñ ainikien ṃōṃōjānjānḷọk (eṃṃōjānjānḷọk), iba wōt kwōj eañiñin eō. | ṃōṃōjānjān |
55. | “Uh-oh, that building is all messed up from those drunk guys,” I heard Father say. P165 | “Io epok ṃōṇe ippān ri-kadek raṇe,” iroñ an Jema ba. | ṃōṇe |
56. | And I heard the sound of their treading feet as they moved around and got ready to change the sail from one side to the other to tack the boat. P1101 | Im ikar roñ ainikien ṃūṃūṇṃūṇ ke erro kar pepejọrjor ijo i lōñ in pojak in diak. | ṃūṃūṇṃūṇ |
57. | After I nodded to let Father know I understood, I heard the sound of treading feet up on the deck. P678 | Ālikin aō ṃōṃajidjid ḷọk ñan Jema im kaalikkar ke imeḷeḷe, ikar roñ ainikien ṃūṃūṇṃūṇ ioon teek. | ṃūṃūṇṃūṇ |
58. | “Okay, let’s start chanting,” I heard Father say to the Boatswain. P839 | “Ekwe jero jino ñijiri,” iroñ an Jema ba ñan Bojin eo. | ñijir |
59. | Just the Boatswain and I heard Dad’s words because the Captain was snoring on the hatch up front. P1020 | Kōmro Bojin eo kar roñ naan kein an Jema bwe Kapen eo eñortak ioon aj eo i ṃaan | ñortak |
60. | I heard him moan in pain. | Iar roñ an ñūñūr (iññūr) in metak. | ñūñūr |
61. | When I got back up to the deck I heard the Captain laying out steering duties for the three of them for the night. P536 | Ke ij tōprak ḷọk ioon teek iroñ an Kapen eo kōppeḷaak ikijjien awaan jebwebwe ko aerjeel Jema im Bojin. | peḷaak |
62. | “Didn’t I say you would drift off course and then end up right back here where you started?” That was the only thing I heard the Chief say to Father. P1347 | Āinwōt iar ba ke koṃeañ naaj bar petok im eọtōk ān in?” men eo ikar roñ an irooj eo jiroñ ḷọk Jema de in. | peḷọk |
63. | He was out of my sight but I heard the Boatswain talking to him. P1070 | Ekar penjak ḷọk wōt ak iroñ ainikien Bojin eo an kōnono ḷọk ñan e. | penjak |
64. | And I heard the sound of their treading feet as they moved around and got ready to change the sail from one side to the other to tack the boat. P1101 | Im ikar roñ ainikien ṃūṃūṇṃūṇ ke erro kar pepejọrjor ijo i lōñ in pojak in diak. | pepejọrjor |
65. | “Didn’t I say you would drift off course and then end up right back here where you started?” That was the only thing I heard the Chief say to Father. P1347 | Āinwōt iar ba ke koṃeañ naaj bar petok im eọtōk ān in?” men eo ikar roñ an irooj eo jiroñ ḷọk Jema de in. | petok |
66. | I heard him speaking broken English to that American. | Iar roñjake an pijin ippān ri-pālle eo. | pijin |
67. | I heard the sound of him falling. | Iar roñ pọkwi ḷọk in an wōtlọk. | pọkwi |
68. | I only heard him falling to the ground. It seems as though I heard him fall. | Iar roñ wōt ainikien an pọkwiḷọk. | pọkwi |
69. | I only heard him falling to the ground. It seems as though I heard him fall. | Iar roñ wōt ainikien an pọkwiḷọk. | pọkwi |
70. | He was almost overcome when he heard that his wife had left him. | Erōññaḷọk ke ej roñ ke rōjoḷọke. | rōññaḷọk |
71. | “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. | rọọl |
72. | Father heard this and didn't hesitate but rushed straight to the Captain. P1087 | Jema eroñ ijin im jab bar aepādpād ak etōbtōb ḷọk ñan ippān Kapen eo. | tōbtōb |
73. | I don’t know how many minutes or even hours I had been doing that when I heard the sound of a truck on the pier. P349 | Ijaje jete minit ak awa tokālik, ak iroñ aininkien juon tūrak ioon wab eo. | tokālik |
74. | “Okay, I’ll run down again and check on how the Captain is doing,” I heard Father say. P1139 | “Ekwe ij ja bar ettōr laḷ ḷọk ṃōk waate Kapen eṇ ej et,” iroñ an Jema ba. | waat |
75. | “Well, Captain, you get down on the pier and you Boatswain get down into the boat,” I heard Father say to the Captain and the Boatswain. P350 | “Ioḷe Kapen e, kwōn to waj ioon wab ṇe ak kwe Bojin, iwōj i lowaan wa ṇe,” iroñ an Jema ba. | waj |
