Naro Language Project The Naro Language Project is a project currently being undertaken by the Reformed Church in D'kar that aims to describe and develop an understanding of the Naro language, increase literacy by teaching Naro speakers to read and write their language and translate the Bible into Naro. The project was started in the 1980s. The Naro language project has, as of 2007, translated 70% of the Bible into the Naro language. Numerals Below are Naro numerals, from Visser (2001). Only 'one', 'two', and 'three' are native Naro numerals, while the rest have been borrowed from Nama. Orthography is given first, followed by IPA in brackets. cúí /|úí/ cám̀ /|ám̀/ nqoanà /ᵑǃōa̯nà/ hàka /hàkā/ koro /kōɾō/ nqáné /ǃnáné/ hõò /hṍò/ kaisà /kāi̯sà/ khòesí [kʰo᷅e̯sí/ dìsí /dìsí/ Bibliography Visser, Hessel (2001) Naro Dictionary: Naro–English, English–Naro''.
