Veccio
Come veccio per ti? Mi star più veccio di ti. Quanto più veccio? Diciassette anni. Veccio! Muchachu!
This is a small dialogue I have written in Mediterranean Lingua Franca or Sabir which is quite possibly not perfect. As well as the Wikipedia page, another excellent resource is A Glossary of Lingua Franca published by Alan D. Corré from University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee.
For those interested, the following is the translation as I understand it (though as I said, it may not be perfect).
| Lingua Franca | English |
|---|---|
| Come veccio per ti? | How old are you? |
| Mi star più veccio di ti. | I am older than you. |
| Quanto più veccio? | How much older? |
| Diciassette anni. | Seventeen years. |
| Veccio! | Old man! |
| Muchachu! | Child! |
