  • Newari: “The more words there are
    the less meaning there will be in them.
    So then what benefit will there before anyone?” (Source: Newari Back Translation)

    the more often we say things that are senseless,
    so it certainly does not benefit us to talk a lot.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
