Last Saturday, there was an earthquake centred near the city I live in which was the strongest in my state in over fifty years.

I didn't feel it because I was walking when it happened or possibly on my way out the door.

I finally translated The Hobbit chapter 7 into Sajiwan. It's the longest chapter so far, and took me a year and seven months, quite a bit longer than I would've wanted. It can be found here. Chapter 8 has a similar length, but I hope I'll translate it a little faster than chapter 7.

it doesn't, that's just the way that /y/ is written orthographically as it is an allophone of former /Vɥ ... ˈV/ and due to <y> already being in use.
