Good point! I have revised my translation to accomodate the
laryngeals to the best of my ability. Here it is below:
Kl.ní: n.wl.éh2neh2 h3éwis h1ékwons spokét / h1e spekt. Tóisom
h3éinos gwr.úm wóghom h1e weght, h3éinos megnóm bhórom h1e bhert,
h1éti h3éinos wírom h3e(h1)kú(d) h1e bhert.
H3éwis weukwét: "Méom kerd h2eghnutói spekeni wírom h2egóntm.
h1ékwons."
H1ékwo:s weukwónt: "Kléu(e), h3éwis, n.smá: kr.dá: h2eghnuntói
spekeni tod: wíros, pótis, h3éwios wéleh2s gwhr.móm wéstrom sebhi
kwérti. H1éti h3éwis n.wl.éh2neh2 nu h1ésti."
Tod kekluwós, h3éwis h2égrom bhugét.
What do you think?
