Around the World in Eighty Days 19

Hong Kong is an island which came into the possession of the English by the Treaty of Nankin, after the war of 1842...
-> Onkon es uni nesia, na aribe pas a abe a Englan per Pakto de Nankin poste batal anu 1842.

On reaching the quay where they were to embark on the Carnatic, he was not astonished to find Fix walking up and down.
-> Pasporto aribe pas a dok, plaskia ilis paso futur in sip KARNATIK. Ili senti pas ne surpris peri eureka, na Fiks paso peri la.

The detective had, indeed, good reasons to inveigh against the bad luck which pursued him. The warrant had not come!
-> Androoptikpro na abe pas uni kaus ben peri aribeespekne, na paso a ili. Autorite na pro pris aribe pas ne.

"Well, Monsieur Fix," said Passepartout, "have you decided to go with us so far as America?"
-> Pasporto logo, "Andro Fis, dedus pas ni, na ni paso futur kon mis a Amerika?"

"Yes," returned Fix, through his set teeth.
-> Fis donre pas dia denti klos: "Ia."

"Come and engage your berth."
-> "Paso kon mi, e pris stofdormi ni."

They entered the steamer office and secured cabins for four persons.
-> Ilia paso in domgraf, e fakto samber sekur pro kuadri antrop.

The clerk, as he gave them the tickets, informed them that, the repairs on the Carnatic having been completed, the steamer would leave that very evening, and not next morning, as had been announced.
-> Androsek don pas a ilis bilet. Ili logo pas a ilis, na eksdefek ot sip Karnatik es komple. Sip paso futur ot la noktu dis, e antemedijur ne, kak ilis logo pas.

"That will suit my master all the better," said Passepartout. "I will go and let him know."
-> Pasporto logo, "Dis es ben pro sefal mi. Mi paso, e logo futur a ili."

Fix now decided to make a bold move; he resolved to tell Passepartout all.
-> Fis judi pas fakto uni akto brabo. Ili judi pas logo a Pasporto stoftuta.

He accordingly invited his companion into a tavern which caught his eye on the quay.
-> Prona ili deman a androkon, na ilis paso a dombibe, ili optik pas espekne a dok.

Fix and Passepartout saw that they were in a smoking-house haunted by those wretched, cadaverous, idiotic creatures to whom the English merchants sell every year the miserable drug called opium...
-> Fis e Pasporto kompren pas, na ilis es in domfume, plaskia es antrop benne, morta-optikomo, sofine, a na bisines antrop Englan poli narkot benne kon nam opium.

They ordered two bottles of port, to which the Frenchman did ample justice...
-> Ilis order pas bi botel bino, ot na Franseantrop bibe pas partimaga.

Fix placed his hand upon Passepartout's arm, and, lowering his voice, said, "You have guessed who I am?"
-> Fis plas uni mani a brak ot Pasporto, e logo, "Ni dibina pas dis, na mi es antropkia?"

"An agent of the members of the Reform Club, sent out here to interrupt my master's journey."
-> "Antrop ot grup Formare, ilis espedi a dis pro rakta turis dis ot sefal mi."

"I am a police detective, sent out here by the London office."
-> "Mi es Androoptikpro ot polis, ilis espedi per dompolis ot urban London."

"What nonsense!" cried Passepartout, striking the table with his fist. "My master is the most honourable of men!"
-> Pasporto logo pas leban, e batal mensa per mani klos: "Sofine! Sefal mi es onor plasuni ot antrop tuta!"

"Consider that I've said nothing," said Fix; "and let us drink."
-> Fis logo pas: "Atentif, na mi logo pas nul. Mis bibe."

Some pipes full of opium lay upon the table. Fix slipped one into Passepartout's hand.
-> Pipe multine ot opium es pas sur mensa. Fis plas pas konesne uni in mani ot Pasporto.

He took it, put it between his lips, lit it, drew several puffs, and his head, becoming heavy under the influence of the narcotic, fell upon the table.
-> Ili pris ili, plas ili inter bi labia, pris respira multine. Sefal ili esaribe gram pro narkot na, e katarakta pas a mensa.

"At last!" said Fix, seeing Passepartout unconscious. "Mr. Fogg will not be informed of the Carnatic's departure..."
-> Fiks logo, poste optik Pasporta es konesne: "Fini! Andro Fog resep ne informa peri sip KARNATIK."

About Lingua Sistemfrater

LINGUA SISTEMFRATER, "Brotherhood language," was invented in 1957 by Vietnamese linguist Pham Xuan Thai. It was made to be a very easy international language. The vocabulary contains about 1000 word roots. The words have a very broad meaning; for example, the word optik  means both "eye" and "see." Other words can be made by combining the word roots. Opposites are formed with -ne ; for example, fasil  means "easy," fasilne means "difficult." The result is that the language can be learned very quickly. The alphabet has only 18 letters: ABDEFGIJKLMNOPRSTU. Vowels are pronounced as they are in most languages. The only consonant pronounced differently from English is the J; it sounds like the letter Z (a French J should be close enough as well). Grammar is simple as well. Sentence order is subject, verb, object. Words that describe other words come after those words. A dictionary and the 12 rules of grammar can be found at the official webs...
