| English Paraphrase 1 | Now, there was one language with one way of speaking in the whole world. |

| Notes 2 | *The Kizion language has a case that is called 'separative'. It gives the direction of something, like 'along the road'. |
|---|
| Notes 4 | *There is also another unusual case, called 'metative'. He gives the destination of a movement. |
|---|
| Notes 9 | *A third unusual case is the 'origotive', that says you the origin of a movement. |
