The |nu'she, the tt' e, and the wind and rain

The |nu'she, the tt' e, and the wind and rain

Lucy Lloyd !kun notebooks

!nanni (XI)

The |nu'she (a small black bird) calls when the sun is small and has not risen (it is in the ground). When the wind blows hard the rain comes, and the wind ceases when the rain falls. While the people eat the !naxane, the tt' e (a fowl-like bird) calls. These birds also eat !naxane.
