A ítí ten eng kotte ot dâ?
Are there any on sale here?
Ten ítí, it is-at, is used to mean 'there is'.
We have used em twice in these sentences. Eng is a varient form that occurs before words starting with k-. It is an example of sandhi at work in this language.
We have seen dâkotte, buy, or transaction coming to me. Its partner is kotte ot, sell, or transaction away from me. Away-from-speaker has its own particle, ot.
The stem of the verb 'come' ends the sentence being used as an adverb of place.
