PAUL'S FIRST LETTER TO THE PEOPLE IN THESSALONICA
Unknown if consultant checked.
English names and loan words are now spelled as in English, with a hyphen before any Nyangumarta suffixes All jini and pini have now been standardised as jirni and pirni. Should we change 'ngayiny' back to 'ngarlu'? Should we change 'yijalmarta jinakata' to 'Christian'? Now that the Translation Team have revised parts of it, we will need to update the English back translation to match it.
