Help your conlang fluency (2)

Substantial postings about constructed languages and constructed worlds in general. Good place to mention your own or evaluate someone else's. Put quick questions in C&C Quickies instead.

Well, unless he meant "dear" as in "beloved"... you cannibal.
I generally forget to say, so if it's relevant and I don't mention it--I'm from Southern Michigan and speak Inland North American English. Yes, I have the Northern Cities Vowel Shift; no, I don't have the cot-caught merger; and it is called pop.

[nalə̃ˈpi̤lə̃pi̤ ˈniska ˈka̤i̤də aˈa̤]
n=anopʰi~nopʰi nitʰka kʰaite akʰa
1=love~PROG be.beautiful be.young woman
"I am in love with a beautiful girl."

Nopf dydadölã elỹ.

n=opʰ hnetatʰo=na e=ne [TBD, we've not specified any rules for me=and=you etc.]
1=want join=3 LOC=1
"I want to marry her"

(I'm not entirely sure about the validity of a loose locative pronoun after the verb phrase, but the alternative - having three clitics in a row - seems unwieldly.)
