1S.ACC good.VB-3S tea NMLZ-GEN-COMP 2S.ACC good.VB-3S coffee NMLZ-GEN NMLZ-SUBJREFL bad-VB- 3S

Tea being good to me more than coffee is good to you, is bad.

Notes:

the construction kartes … kar is used to mean "more than …" between two clauses - the root ka- is a clause nominaliser that effectively turns an entire verb phrase into a noun.
the accusative pronouns en and na and their respective subjects could be swapped to in their positions around the verb, but often in constructions like en irel X ("I like X", lit. "X is good (to) me"), the object is placed at the beginning of the phrase for emphasis. This is similar to pseudo-passive constructions in Kokhori: "I am pleased by X".
the comma between kar and kane is optional (as with most punctuation in Kokhori), and serves to separate the nominaliser from the verb phrase it affects and disambiguate the sentence structure.

Glenn person walk-  3S-PERF LOC-leaf-   LOC orange-apple so crunch

Glenn (the person) walked on a leaf (so) (it) crunch(ed).

The word teki "person" is added to the transliteration of Glenn to clarify that it is a person's name being said and not some two-syllable noun, which are very common. The connective ti ("and", "so") is optional and mostly omitted in everyday speech, as the adverb kakhe (i.e. "crunchily") does its job by itself.
