Happy New Year...

[Ian Mursell]

Piyalli, friends.

We received the following message yesterday via our website.  My Náhuatl is
very rudimentary ­ I can vouch for the first and last words, but that¹s it!
Please could someone kindly do their best to correct what this Japanese
correspondent has written:-

³I'm Japanese.  Please teach me Nahuatl.
  How to write in Nahuatl is not understood and it embarrasses it though I
want to write the sentence of
"Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!".  I¹m keen to know..  Please correct
the sentence that I wrote.
 
 
  The original text : Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
  In Spanish          : ¡Feliz Navidad y próspero año nuevo!
 
  My sentence      : Kuali Tlakatilisiluitl iuan tlasempaktiani yankuik
xiuitl!
 
 
  I'm sorry by poor English and Nahuatl.  Thanks in advance. ³

At the end of the day (literally!) I¹d just like to take the opportunity to
wish everyone in this community a very Happy New Year and to say thanks for
all the fascinating points that have been raised and explored this year.
