[One] played cards all night long until [one's] knuckles [were] raw.   Amā īe spēļiz kǭrtidi koņtš krõmšõld tūorõd.

Whoever does not save a kopeck, does not get a rouble.   Kis kopīkt ä’b ārmakst, se rubīļt ä’b sǭ.

One bushel is six kulmets.   Ikš vakā u’m kūž sīekõ.

[One] also measured rye with the kulmet.   Sīekõks ka āigiz ri’ggõzt.

Then I planted this and this many kulmets; one kulmet is ten, almost eleven litres.   Ma si’z mǭ’zõ kīliz set ja set sīekõ; ikš sīek u’m kim, pigā ikštuoistõn lītõrt.

I put two kulmets of flour in the dough.   Ma pa’ņ apātõksõ kakš sīekõ jo’uḑi.

There were ten kulmets in one bushel.   Ī’ds vakās u’m vȯnd kim kiļmõ.

[One] also measured flour and grain with the kulmet.   Kiļmõks āigiz ka jo’vḑi ja tie’rrõ.
